"From Butter Sculptures to Cow Poop Throwing: The Quirky Delights of Iowa State Fair"

The Iowa State Fair showcased life-size sculptures made from butter and a variety of deep-fried treats, attracting over a million visitors and 13 presidential candidates, including Donald Trump and Ron DeSantis. The fair featured more than 200 food stands and over 60 different mobile foods on a stick, along with attractions like an 'ugly cakes' contest. One of the highlights was a 600-pound cow made entirely from butter, displayed alongside sculptures of Iowa athletes. Trump overshadowed DeSantis and other contenders, criticizing DeSantis's poor poll performance and suggesting he should drop out of the race.
