To be a beer snob or not to be a beer snob, that is the question…….or at least this week’s “May We interrupt Your Day” question.

Last Friday, May We Interrupt Your Day headed to the Portland waterfront to ask Rose Festival fans a simple question — “What are you eating and why?” We came away with second-hand stomach aches and an ear-ful about vendor food. From trying to go healthy to Carnie sketchiness, here’s what we found you were eating.
