State dessert being proposed... Should it be Kringle? [View all]

Wisconsin lawmakers are considering making kringle the official state pastry.
Democratic State Rep. Cory Mason of Racine proposed honoring the kringle – a large round flat pastry with a hole in the middle made predominantly in Racine County – in the state budget proposal that passed last week.
But a majority vote in either house can take out any budget provision, and the governor could use his partial veto power if it reaches his desk. Both houses are controlled by Republicans.
All Gov. Scott Walker’s spokesman Tom Evenson would say last week was that Walker would review the budget when it reaches his desk.
