I learned that the Elephant Ears vendors had ‘exclusive rights’ to sell fried dough products. I would like to complain about this policy—if this report is true. This policy prevents local vendors from selling products that are sufficiently different in character than elephant ears. Multiple vendors at the fair sell hot dogs, I don’t see why the public (me) has to be deprived of the variety of offerings available in the way of “fried dough” products. I could find both types of products on sale in past years at the fair. I could have donuts at lunch and then for dinner a bag of donuts as hors d’oeuvres, then elephant ears main course, followed by more donuts for dessert. Now it’ll just be boring ol’ elephant ears, elephant ears, elephant ears every meal. ;-) <o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Maybe Buy the Dozen should consider bringing a Federal Anti-Trust suit against the 4-H or Future Farmers of America or whoever for monopolizing the fried dough market and for unfair competitive practices. ;-)<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Disclaimer: I do like the 4-H/FFA.
