A crazy food festival sounds like a joke topic, but once you start looking into it, you'll realize it's everywhere—the crazier, the better.
1．The Bibimbap Festival
In the South Korean town of Jeonju, their “mixed rice” dish is a hearty serve of rice topped with raw beef, a rainbow of vegetables, a raw egg and gochujang sauce (韩国的辣椒酱). They take four days out of October to celebrate it.
Like any festival there's music, entertainment and magic, but making it that little bit different is the bibimbap that's whipped up in a big bowl by dozens of chefs and served to over 400 people.
2．Waikiki Spam Jam (怀基基午餐肉节)
Who can imagine this canned meat have so many lovers? Well, it turns out that a can of Spam is the goto item in Hawaii, along with a grass skirt and garland (花环)．
The people of Hawaii love Spam so much that they even spend a day in May serving out the best Spam, a type of cheap canned meat made mainly from pork.
3．The Bessières Easter Egg Festival
At Eastertime, for those in the French town of Bessières it's all about an egg far less sweet.
Here they celebrate the holiday by getting dozens of chefs to make one large omelette (煎蛋卷)—15,000 eggs strong—for the townsfolk (城镇居民)．
4．The Potato Days Festival
This festival actually takes place in Barnesville, Minnesota (明尼苏达州), the US.
Over the last Friday and Saturday in August the town celebrates its potatogrowing skills by hosting potato picking and peeling contests, as well as a Miss Tater Tot pageant (盛典) for fiveandsixyearold girls.
