My title says it all: the food could come straight from the Minnesota State Fair, and the music acts could basically be picked out of a hat. Taste of Minnesota was not what I expected it to be. I was told that there would be a sampling from many local restaurants and there would be great entertainment and fireworks to accent the food. The food was corn dogs, cheese curds and other fried "delicacies" from a vendors just waiting their turn to stake out some real estate at the great Minnesota get together. The musical entertainment absolutely can NOT be counted on. If you are looking for some gourmet snacks for a picnic, go to Byerlys then Minnehaha falls, you will have a much better time!
