Who doesn't love themselves a plump, juicy strawberry? Okay, we don't love them enough to dress up in fruit knitwear like the above Strawberry Shortcake. But we'd show up to the 27th annual California Strawberry Festival in Oxnard, California on May 15 and 16 to honor the sweet berry.

By "honor" we mean "eat." According to the festival, Ventura County produces 27 percent of the state's strawberries, which means they'll be in abundance at the more than 50 food booths. There will be unusual fare, like strawberry pizza and strawberry nachos, while purists will go for dishes like chocolate-dipped strawberries.
