If Americana Submarine wasn't to taste you could head on down into the Old Chicago Fairgrounds to have a taste of Mr. Submarine.



Popcorn and cotton candy go hand in hand with amusement parks and with two stores a Big Top Popcorn was never far away.



Hey look more peanuts.



Check out the prices at The Meenie Weenie.  A hot dog on a stick just fifty cents.  They were so good I heard they put the other hot dog on a stick guy out of business.



If you want some roast beef Arby's is ready to go down in the park just like Toro Taco with their three stores, one in each food court and one down in the park.



For those on a health food kick Manny's Juice Bar could juice you something up along with a corned beef sandwich.  I'm not sure if juice and corned beef really works as a combination but someone must have thought so.



To round out all that Old Chicago had for guests taste buds toy have some Wendy's Old Fashioned Hamburgers, the Columbian House, and The Circus Kitchen where you get a free drink with any chicken dinner.  Note that coupon expired on December 1st 1975.

Let's get a little deeper into Old Chicago next with a trip around the streets of Old Chicago.
