Great food! Especially after a day of exploring!
Great food! Especially after a day of exploring!
Arriving at 5am to avoid any sold out varieties; the rewards included cotton candy and bubblegum sprinkled and glazed and a collection of bars (similar to long johns but with the filling on top) with flavor profiles such as black forest, cookies-n-cream, moose-tracks, and salted caramel. The cost for the entire dozen? Only $4.75! (Compare that to the $30 for a dozen at glazed and infused in Chicago)
