The 20th annual 4-H Cook-Off took place Wednesday afternoon at the Champaign County Fair.
Dishes were available, after being judged, for tasting by the 4-H Cook-Off audience for $1.
All money collected is a donation to the 4-H FCS Committee to be used toward expenses of supplies, printing, and prizes.
Entries are judged based on seven standards regarding the appearance and taste of the dish.
For the awards, gift cards were donated anonymously for 1st and 2nd place for each division. A cookbook was given by the Designing Kids 4-H Club for 3rd place for each division.
