DES MOINES, Iowa — If food is the reason you go to the Iowa State Fair, you're not alone.
70% of people say they to go the fair for the food.
One of the staples of the fair, Barksdale's chocolate chip cookies, is getting a new look for National Chocolate Chip Cookie Day.
From 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesday, you can get as many buckets of cookies as you want. Each bucket costs $15.
Without an Iowa State Fair this summer, organizers have had to adjust.
"It challenges you to be creative," said Iowa State Fair CEO & Manager Gary Slater. "It challenges us to offer a piece of the fair because I think everybody's grieving a little bit that 'Oh gosh, there's no fair this year.'"
To get the cookies, enter through Gate 2 on University Avenue and follow the signs to the new Barksdale's Iowa State Fair Cookie Kitchen on Grand Avenue.
