Among the cream puffs and everything you can get on a stick, food at the Wisconsin State Fair is a dish best served over the top. Meet 2010’s early favorite: the Krispy Kreme Cheeseburger.
Sold at the Machine Shed tent at the fair, the $5 burger features the normal patty and melted cheese, but with a Krispy Kreme doughnut for a bun.

The calorie count: 1,000, according to Nathan Morrissey, executive chef at the Machine Shed.
