Fair Food? Fair Food!

  Everyone is probably guilty of eating "fair food" at least once in their lives. I think "guilty" is probably too harsh a term for something that good. Although it should be against every law known to man to sell shit like that. God, I love it! Why is that greasy, nasty, awful smelling, fly infested, dirty puddle of grease on a paper plate that contains some former edible food stuffs so good?

  Just take a look at this typical lard palace at a fair in the picture. I see deep fried veggies and deep fried Twinkies. Holy hell they've even got deep fried avocados-"New." What the hell is new? The grease or the avocado? Ummm, and everybody's favorite the old deep fried asparagus! Goddamn, that conjures up some wonderful thoughts...brings a smile of contentment to my face. I see this and I think of shit and puke and flys!

  I used to love that crap to the max. Didn't y'all? I mean the cotton candy and candy apples and just buttered popcorn. I still like an occasional corn dog. Nothing wrong with that right? Garlic fries and deep fried Twinkies for Christ sake? Just in time for Thanksgiving dinner too. Wouldn't a plate of fucking deep fried Twinkies look nice next to grandma's turkey? Mmm, yeah boy!

  I don't do too many fairs and carnivals anymore. It's just by choice. I could probably enjoy walking around the place and watching other people eating fried avocados and giant onions or funnel cakes. Not for me though. Not any more. Now, I can just look and laugh at everybody else. The way they devour that crap like it's their last meal on earth. Geez, I probably looked like that too at one time. That thought alone is enough to make me never eat another fried Ore...uhhh, I mean candied apple.-Don.

Don, is that shit for real? Deep fried fucking avocados? I think I just threw up a little, you know way back of the throat where it burns like hell? I love fair food but only burritos and nachos.

I tried a deep fried Oreo last week,for the first time. It sounded disgusting,but the taste only can be described as,heavenly!! YUM!!

Don said...

ettarose: Hi babe. Don't forget those yummy deep fried asparagus too. It's on that "menu" right under the "fresh veggie combo." I swear I think these people are hawking a vegetarian menu that's all deep fried and at a fucking carnival of all places.

Don said...

thinkinfyou: Yeah, I like fried Oreos, but I just like Oreos period. I've only eaten 3 or 4 of them before. Just give me the Double Stuffs. Mmmm, all of the fat without the deep fried greasy lips!

Hmmm - wasn't aware that vegetables (and Twinkies) fucked...

Don said...

Broadway Matron: Only at the fair lady. Only at the fair.

Chica said...

I totally agree, it all might as well be fried vomit, it's that "good" for you. Then again, I used to devour the corndogs and scones when I was a kid. I haven't been to a fair in years now, and if I go again, I wouldn't eat anything from one.

Don said...

Chica: I might still go with a corn dog, but that'd be it these days. It's a good practice to carry a bottle of Drano with you if you plan on eating at a fair too.

Da Old Man said...

For some reason the thought of deep fried Twinkies just sounds so disgusting. G-d knows I've eaten everything else deep fried, but perhaps that's my grease stained line I won't cross.

Don said...

Da Old Man: They look much better than they taste to me. It's like putting a ton of butter on a piece of toast and biting into it. The butter just oozes out...same deal with the oil and the Twinkies-deadly!

I love fair food!!!

I especially love Indian tacos and funnel cakes. I can't go to a fair or carnival without eating those before I leave. Course now a days you have to bring 100 bucks just to pay for 4 people to eat corn dogs, but they don't happen that often around here -- so what the hell!

Nanny Goats In Panties said...

You poor thing, how you must be struggling your inner demons to avoid it while wnating so desperately to devour it. Hilarious! And Stumbled.

Don said...

AngieSS: What is an Indian taco? That sounds downright scarey!

Don said...

Nanny Goats: Yeah I know. It's sad-my struggles I mean. Thanks for the SU too!

I had one of those Deep Fried Oreos before. The last one I ever had too, I'm glad to say after one awful night.

The Space Cowboy said...

Deep fried oreos is still on my list of things to try. But deep fried avocados? This sounds quite tempting, being a huge fan of avocados

Don said...

ginger: heaven on your feet huh? I like the avocado part, but the fried?

Don said...

unfinishedrambler: They're not too bad to me, but just all of that fair food combined is nauseating. Your clothes even smell like old grease when you leave those places.

Don said...

The Space Cowboy: You may like the Oreos. The Twinkies though? Way, way too much grease. They're just like a sponge when soaking it up too.

My Love Life Sucks said...

OH my god...I need a funnel cake right now! :D...well, maybe 5 or 6 of them :)...and some nasty greasy onion rings for dessert :)-- YUMMY!

AngieSS said...

Don, an Indian Taco is made with some kind of fry bread as the base -- it's light and airy, even though it's soaked in grease...hehehe Then they top it with spicy mexican beans, beef, lettuce, tomato and cheese. Hmmmm... I guess it's basically a taco salad.
