File Under: Weird Food I found at the Summer Fancy Food Show, which returned to Javits Center in mid-June after a two-year pandemic-induced hiatus. And thank god, right? Because I needed more weird food to feature on this website. Part of Chocolate Storybook’s expansive line of gourmet cotton candy treats, this Maple Bacon Cotton Candy has a smoky-sweet flavor you won’t find anywhere else. You know you want it.
