Every year at the county fair,something unusual gets "fried"...
this year it was Deep fried Olives,Avocado's,and Twinkies.
Last year it was Snicker'Bars...

What's the most unusual/weird food item you've tasted fried?
and ,would you eat any of the one's mentioned above?

fried penguin.


yes, I would eat anything fried, in fact i only eat fried food.

I had a deep fried snickers at our State Fair a few years ago. Tried the deep fried oreo too, but I'm not a fan.
They had deep fried mac-n-cheese on a sitck once.

I'll try anything deep fried. At least you know it will taste good.

The weirdest fried things I've eaten were fried tofu and fried ice cream. Not too weird.

I eat fried tofu all the time. Not deep fried, mind you.

And deep fried ice cream is sooooo yummy! I try to have it at least once a year.

Fried Oreos and deep fried pickles.

I don't think fried gator tail is too uncommon, but I had that a couple times and LOVED it!

I heard about deep fried Snickers bars as being very popular in Scotland about 5 or 6 years ago.

I love fried foods. HAve to stay away though...that whole "cholesterol" thing.

Don't forget on a stick! It's gotta be deep fried and served on a stick!

CarrieMpls said:

oh yeah, that too...

My cholesterol is to low but my ass isn't so I have to suppress a desire for fried foods....
I was in Memphis last year. They fry yer SALAD if you don't request otherwise.... EGAD!

TRUE STORY:


My combined cholesterol total is 117 ... 113 if I run on a the vegetarian side. The beginning of normal is 130) When my Chinese Dr. saw this in my blood work he said awww good.... you can basically eat whatever you want....

I looked at him and laughed ... Apparently not Dr have you seen my ass?

I've never had anything weird that was deep fried, @ this point I wouldn't try it

It is in the North of England...

Can't say I've had anything deemed unusual...fried ice cream is the nearest

CarrieMpls said:

I've had the deep fried oreo too,
it was better than I thought it would be.
I can understand fried vegetables,...it's the sweet tihngs that you don't think will last in the heat that get me.

fried mac&cheese<----that is weird. on a stick?

CarrieMpls said:

The thought of deep-fried macaroni and cheese is making my mouth water. No, literally. :slurp:

Deep-fried calamary was probably the weirdest thing I've
tried on a stick. All I can say is that it was tough,
tough, tough! Hard to figure out how they managed to get
it on a stick!

Not real big on that stuff at the fair....

Now deep-fried mini-donuts that's a different story!

Fried Cheesecake

Fried chicken gizzards.

Although that doesn't come close to beating Dex's entry...

PurpleJedi said:

eww, my mama and grandma used to eat those alot

AnckSuNamun said:

...they're not so bad actually....

DexMSR said:

I think we have a winner!
can you describe the taste?
what was it served with?was there a dipping sauce involved?

Fried Ice Cream is common. They used to even sell it at Chi Chi's. It's pretty good actually.

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Y'alls? Like you don't live here. That's your state fair, too. Own it! Love it! I tried the deep fried mac n cheese - nasty shit. It's all dry and crusty. Also tried the fried corn on the cob. Doubly disgusting. All the corn like shriveled up so it was like a soggy cob under some yucky batter. Now the deep fried Scotch egg (hard boiled egg covered in sausage, batterd and deep fried)? That's some disgusting shit that I will eat again and again!

As far as fried tofu goes, what's so odd about it? I love tofu and fried is one of the best ways.

My teammates tricked me into eating it actually, but it tasted pretty good! I can't recall a very distinct taste and all, but it came with dipping sauces of garlic and whatever else! I'd eat 'em again.
