Uh oh, we’re flying out to the midwest in a few days and then driving back to CA, so I suspect at some point, our resistance will falter and we’ll have to give 'em a try… ---

You’re supposed to dip the deep fried butter in sour cream. It’s Paula Deen’s favourite dessert. It makes even _me_ retch, and I’m a deep-fried cheesecake fan. ---

[QUOTE=Lissla Lissar] You’re supposed to dip the deep fried butter in sour cream. It’s Paula Deen’s favourite dessert. [/QUOTE] I… um… I can’t even formulate a good response to this concept. Now, I loves me some crap food, but… _deep fried butter?_ I can feel my arteries hardening a little more, every time I say it. Deep fried butter. _Deep fried_ butter. _Deep fried **butter** _. ---

Had deep fried coke at the State Fair of Texas last year, it wasn’t that good. Essentially no taste. This year, I had the Fried Cookie Dough. That was pretty good. Every year I go, I try something new and different that shouldn’t be deep fried. It’s quite fun. ---
