Iowa State Fair 2026: We tried the Cinnamozza Kdog

Linh here. And I believe the most quintessential "fair food" comes from Korea — specifically, Korean corn dogs.

What it is: Cinnamozza Kdog ($18). It's on a stick. It's fried. And it's full of stretchy mozzarella cheese.

This "new" version of the popular treat is smothered in cinnamon, sugar and Cinnamon Toast Crunch, making it a couple of dollars more expensive than a traditional Korean corn dog.

My thought bubble: You can't go wrong with crispy hot cheese on a stick.

But while I like a sweet and savory combo, this feels a little haphazardly added, instead of an even coating. I would stick with the OG and save a little money.

🧈 Butter ranking: One stick = meh. Five = don't miss it.

If you go: Find it at GoldenKDog outside the Varied Industries Building.
