The most famous food at the annual State Fair of Texas is the Big Tex Choice Awards \u2014 the competition between concessionaires who submit new festival creations to try and win an award, fame, and especially fortune, with the competition helping to stoke sales.<\/p>\n

But that’s far from the only thing to eat at the annual State Fair of Texas \u2014 an event that has evolved into a food fest, with more-more-more new foods<\/a> to try. This year’s judges favored Crab & Mozzarella Arancini, Cookie Chaos Milkshake, and Wagyu Bacon Cheeseburger Deviled Egg Sliders \u2014 three of the winners<\/a> from the 2025 Big Tex Choice Awards \u2014 but the snacking options don’t end there.<\/p>\n

This year, the State Fair of Texas has an additional 35 new beverages and bites to try. The fair itself runs from September 26-October 19, which spans 24 days. If you’re a conscientious foodie, that means going to the fair every day and trying 1.3 snacks every time you go \u2014 and that’s not even factoring in the Big Tex winners.<\/p>\n

Here are the new foods to try at the 2025 State Fair of Texas (and to see the photos of each, go to bigtex.com\/new-food<\/a>). <\/p>\n
