Minnesotans are gearing up for the grand opening of the 2013 MN State Fair, which runs from August 22 through September 2.  At the great Minnesota get-together, happy fair-goers can enjoy just about any food served on a stick.  But, how do you eat your way through the Fair without any guilt?  Or the dreaded tummy-ache? 

Here are the top 6 guilt-free foods to eat at the 2013 MN State Fair.

1) Pork chop on a stick

A classic state fair food, this option has plenty of protein.  Found at Pork Chops and Chicken (Map R-30).
