Gordy’s Shoppers Bring Home the Bacon (Ice Cream)

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. — Gordy’s County Market, an eight-store operator here, has found inspiration for new food products from the upcoming Minnesota State Fair, which will feature such exotic victuals as bacon ice cream, beef tongue tacos, camel burgers and lamb testicles (also known as lamb fries).

On its Facebook page Thursday, Gordy’s asked shoppers which of these offbeat offerings they would be “most prone to try” if Gordy’s carried it. Friday afternoon the retailer will choose one entry at random to receive a Gordy’s gift card.

Of the 72 comments made to the Facebook post late Thursday afternoon, a clear majority favored bacon ice cream.
