This tube of meat coated in corn batter and deep fried has been a fair staple since it was sold for the first time at either the 1942 Texas State Fair or the 1941 Minnesota State Fair.

Most corn dogs just have corn meal in the batter. And unfortunately, most batters have sugar added, making them much too sweet.
