At the State Fair of Texas, They’re Going to Deep Fry Everything, Including Salads
Holy waistline, Batman!
Among the usual suspects of fried cheese, corn dogs, funnel cakes, candy bars, soda, you will also run into the following:
- Peanut Butter, Jelly and Banana sandwiches
- Margaritas (Pass: I’ll take my frozen. This is Texas, after all!)
- Texas Caviar (Black eyed peas are nasty as hell – WHY would you FRY this??)
- Frito Pie (GAG)
- S’mores Pop-Tart (This has potential!)
- Chocolate
- Lemonade (This is Texas – why the hell would you fry something meant to keep you COOL?)
- Fernie’s Fried Club Salad
- Beer
- Ice Cream (see my Lemonade comment)
- Latte (As in COFFEE?!?!? WTH….)
- Cookie Dough
- Banana Split (How dare you ruin a nanner split?!?)
- Chicken Fried Bacon
- Butter (whoever thought of this should be beaten senseless)
- Fernie’s Deep Fried Peaches & Cream
Here is the list of the 2009 Choice Awards for fried foods at the Fair.
No wonder the U.S.A. is the most obese nation…
And by the way…Texas isn’t the only “OMG I need a heart-attack-on-a-stick” state – Oregon is also taking steps towards this.
Screw that noise. I’ll stick with my funnel cake and go my merry way.

P.S. Enjoy the haunted house they put together. It’s somewhat cheesy for most adults but kids seem to like it. Plus, there’s a funnel cake stand close by.
Nom nom nom.
