Minnesota-brewed beer is big at this year's State Fair
The Minnesota State Fair begins today, and among its more than 300 food vendors and 450 edible snacks will be Ole's Cannoli, a brand-new food stand in Heritage Square run by the mother-daughter team of Pam Olson and Marta Lindsey, two self-described "fair nerds" who say that opening a food stand at Minnesota's epic Get-Together has been something they have dreamed about and worked toward for 10 years.
We talked with Lindsey about Ole's Cannoli's long journey to the fair, what it takes to score one of the rare and coveted food stands, their hectic preparation for the last three months, and what's going through her mind on the eve of her first day as a seller at the massive, 12-day event.
