Fried dough is not to be confused with its close cousin, the funnel cake which is popular in New Jersey and the Mid-Atlantic Region of the United States.
Fried dough is common in New England and it's a food that I grew up with.
It's common to see at county fairs (like the Topsfield Fair!), carnivals, and the beach (like the New Hampshire Lakes Region and Cape Cod!), and is often enjoyed in the summer at food trucks.

Fried dough is a North American food associated with outdoor food stands in carnivals, amusement parks, fairs, rodeos, and seaside resorts. "Fried dough" is the specific name for a particular variety of fried bread made of a yeast dough; see the accompanying images for an example of use on carnival-booth signs. Fried dough is also known as fry dough, fry bread (bannock), fried bread, doughboys, elephant ears, scones, pizza fritte, frying saucers, and buñuelos (in the case of smaller pieces). These foods are virtually identical to each other and some yeast dough versions of beignets, and recognizably different from other fried dough foods such as doughnuts or fritters.
