That woman judge in the chef’s jacket needs to cut her smoking down to about 4 packs a day. “These people love fried food as much as I do”–yes, Ma’am, it’s obvious that you love fried foods.

I would eat every deep-fried food mentioned so far without hesitation. I’m no athlete, I’ve got metabolism on my side and posting comments to sports blogs requires no physical exertion whatsoever. So pass me another deep fried snickers bar please.

I’ll vouch for the deep-fried twinkies. They also taste vaguely like fake banana flavoring, which I had a hard time wrapping my brain around.

#15-

Not only do we still have the deep fried candy bars and 5 lbs. buckets of chocolate chip cookies (within staggering distance of all the milk you can drink for 50 cents), but we also now have deep fried reubens on a stick and deep fried twinkies.

Just think about that last one for a second. Not only is it deep fried (and will help you die early), but it’s something that’ll take 50,000 years to decompose while in your stomach.

WSR – did they still have the deep-fried Snickers-bar-on-a-stick? Or the five-pound buckets of chocolate chip cookies?

I guess it’s un-Texan of me to say that my favorite thing to get at the Texas State Fair is still good old fashioned roasted corn on the cob — no batter, no frying — although it does have plenty of butter.

I don’t understand why I can’t recreate the same corn on the cob at home. I have to wait a year to get the stuff.

As someone from the upper (literate) south, I thought the residents of the deep dirty dirty were the national standard setters for fried food. Then I went to the Iowa State Fair a few weeks ago.
Dear. Gawd.
After seeing the butter cow and butter shawn johnson, there was nothing to do but eat and watch others eat. Glorious/heartbreaking/I think I have diabeetus. If you’ve never been, go.

I think that makes some sense because strawberries and/or chocolate commonly appear on waffles. This is just an all-in-one version of such. Its not like its deep fried spaghetti and cucumbers…which until now did not exist.

That’s right, chocolate covered bacon and a pound of bacon fried and carmelized with maple syrup.

After all the alcohol and food before the Oil Bowl (UT vs. OU- in case those of you SECers and Big 11ers don’t know), this sign sums it up. The Cotton Bowl people know their audience.

Mangino’s trying to figure out how to beat him to it. Luckily he has on his speedy velour tracksuit.
