SYRACUSE, N.Y. (AP) — Want fries with that … doughnut?

A food booth in Syracuse will unveil the “Big Kahuna Donut Burger” at this year’s New York State Fair.

For between $5 and $6, the adventurous eater will get a quarter-pound burger in between slices of a grilled, glazed doughnut. Toss on some cheese, bacon, lettuce, tomato and onion and you’ve got yourself a 1,500-calorie meal.

America’s state fairs can be counted on to provide foods featuring offbeat ingredient combinations. Wisconsin has chocolate covered bacon on a stick, you can get fried beer in Texas, Massachusetts provides fried jelly beans and North Carolina has the “Koolickle,” pickles soaked in Kool-Aid.

New York’s fair opens Aug. 25.
