What will they deep fry next?

I went to the Colorado State Fair today to watch my beautiful nieces perform on the good old Pepsi stage.  (I think that thing has been there forever.)  While there, my best friend's son, Tyler, ate deep fried Oreos.  He said they were delicious but I was too afraid to try them.  Many years ago at the fair I convinced my husband to try the deep fried Snickers and soon after that he threw up after going on one of those upside down rides.  My husband never throws up.  I'm a huge fan of most fried foods.  I love fried ice cream.  I thoroughly enjoyed the fried pickles.   I also think that almost everything tastes better when it's fried.  It's not very good for the waistline but it sure tastes good when you are eating it.  An Oreo by itself tastes really good and a Snickers by itself is heavenly.  Why do we have to coat it in batter and drench it in oil by deep fat frying it to improve the flavor.  This also proves that when we go to the fair, we will eat almost anything.

  1. Nowhere does the 'wide and fried' experimentation happen with more success and variety than here in the South. My neighbor is frying mini candy bars of all kinds this very weekend. Paula Deen has it down to a science. Personally, I would go for Snickers AND zucchini. Oh, and what about squash blossoms?
