FreeFlyHol 0 #1 January 8, 2003 I don't know what made me think of this...I went to the PX State Fair this year to see STP and ended up seeing a fried twinkie stand. I'm not lying about this either! They also sold fried Snickers bars...for real! I was so bewildered yet intrigued. I stood around watching the two most unhealthy looking people in the world inside the stand dip twinkies and snickers bars into corn dog batter. I dare ask if anyone else witnessed this phenomena or even dared to try one?! x's and o's, Hol :)When cheese gets its picture taken, what does it say?

hooked 0 #3 January 8, 2003 You have got to be joking, right? Why would anyone dip a twinkie into corn dog batter? Sounds really awful.

LouDiamond 1 #5 January 8, 2003 I totally believe you. They were talking about twinkies and snickers and a list of other items they dip that is supposed to be delicious. I believe Oreos was another one. Actually I think they are quite popular in England"It's just skydiving..additional drama is not required" Some people dream about flying, I live my dream SKYMONKEY PUBLISHING Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jimbo 0 #7 January 8, 2003 Someone had fried twinkies at an office party not too long ago, I was afraid to try them. I couldn't get past the idea of the impending heart attack. On the other hand, those who did have them said that they were delicious. - Jim"Like" - The modern day comma Good bye, my friends. You are missed.

wmw999 2,150 #11 January 8, 2003 Never had them fried. However, to hijack your thread I'd like to present The Twinkies Project Funny stuff.

AggieDave 6 #12 January 8, 2003 I remember reading the original T.W.I.N.K.I.E.S. test back in '95 on the net. Maybe it was on UseNet, I can't remember, eitherway, late '95 early '96 it was a HUGE hit on the internet. Neat that they updated they're stuff some since then (well shit, its been 8 years, they should have...)--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline."

KawiZX900 0 #13 January 8, 2003 saw it on t.v. everyone that tried one thought they were darn tasty Accelerate hard to get them looking, then slam on the fronts and rollright beside the car, hanging the back wheel at eye level for a few seconds.

flyingferret 0 #14 January 8, 2003 Yeah, I have had them, and they are not bad. We made them for a LAN party. A few tips: freeze them first, then the dough does not soak up as much grease. And sprinkle powdered suger on top after frying. Not my favorite, but very edible.-- All the flaming and trolls of wreck dot with a pretty GUI. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jose 0 #16 January 8, 2003 Fried snot? Really clean preparation to boot. Just hock one in the oil and scoop out when golden brown. Then dip in Riddlers fried ketchup and eat. Mmmmmmm good. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gawain 0 #17 January 8, 2003 Quote Never had them fried. However, to hijack your thread I'd like to present The Twinkies Project Funny stuff. It is funny! Reminds me of the SpamCam...anyone remember that? Some dude ran experiments on letting Spam go bad compared to other foods. He even did a control test with a tomato and a twinkie. It was a dead even (Spam vs Twinkie) until the tomato collapsed and the Twinkie soaked up the juice. Jeeez there were some funny lab notes in there! So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

charliezulu 0 #18 January 8, 2003 The Twinkie thing is bizarre, but I've had deep fried ice cream at several places, and it's pretty damn good! CZ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KawiZX900 0 #19 January 8, 2003 wouldnt putting ice cream in fryer be worse than a glass of water?

charliezulu 0 #23 January 8, 2003 Seriously! This stuff is great - if you ever find a place wierd enough to offer it, give it a shot. I think they chill it down to about -300 deg. Kelvin, slap a hunk of it in some kind of batter, and toss the whole mess into a deep-fryer. CZ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pammi 0 #24 January 8, 2003 Quote Just had fried PICKLES the other night...... WOW.... GOOD shit..... Oh yeah! I love those! Sonic back home used to serve "pickle-o's" which were just battered and fried sliced pickles. I found a local bar/grill that serves fried spears now...woohoo! One of those once-in-a-while indulgences I heard they had fried snickers and twinkies at the state fair here in NC as well, but I didn't go to the fair and probably couldn't get past the concept of all of those calories and fat enough to try it anyway!
