The Denver County Fair was a hit with just about everyone — everyone who wasn’t particularly hungry. But Jenny An’s disappointment in the Denver County Fair fare earned this rebuke from Kimberly:

Food doesn’t always have to revolve around the “Denver Five” or food trucks or Frank Bonanno in order to be acceptable.

“A vendor with Fancy Tiger mentioned he’d heard about food trucks, and though he hadn’t actually found one, he was hopeful. When I asked a woman working the ticket booth about it, she responded, “Food, in a truck? What’s that?” Bad sign.”

Bad sign? Why? Are food trucks now the epitome of food excellence?

Sigh…hipsters…
