Yes my friends we are back with another installment from the exploration of the Specialty Food Association’s “Summer Fancy Food Show”. I’m back to share all the delicious findings with you.   Let’s start with my friends from the NYC Hot Sauce Expo who had a booth for their respective sauces.  If you’ve never attended this expo and love the spicy side of life you should click HERE to see what you are missing.

The charming ladies of Hella Cocktails.  I love their stuff and met them at a recent Foodie event at the Brooklyn Chamber of Commerce.

Something interesting for the little ones.  It brings the blind box idea to a soft drink.  Take a look.

I love a good sour pickle.   The Backyard Brine folks had some tasty stuff.

A New Yorkers favorite is definately a hot dog.

Chanced upon the One Potato Snacks people and their provisions were superb.  One of my weaknesses is salted chips and all of their stuff was tasty.

Chips from the Emerald Isle.

The folks at Funny Farm Foods were serving up a big bowl of Mac n Cheese and by the time I saw them I was famished.  Yes one can get hungry at a food expo.  Remember you need to be wise with the sampling to avoid getting yourself sick.  These folks stuff hit the spot proper.

Had to get a media moment with my buddies John and Steve back at their booth.

All of this wandering and sampling made me realize that I could use a vacation.

Hold my calls.  Actually, I will not even be taking them.

So that’s going to bring me to the end of the exploring from my first day at the convention. I’m going to stop now but don’t worry I will be back with another chapter tomorrow.
