How in the hell/ why in hell, would you fry beer (or a Frozen Margarita?)
EDIT: Now that I clicked the link... I'm intrigued.
Fried Beer -- Beer-filled pretzel pocket is deep-fried to a golden brown. One bite and the escaping beer serves as a dipping sauce. 21 and over, ID required.
Deep Fried Frozen Margarita -- Sweet & creamy funnel cake batter is deliciously coupled with margarita ingredients. Fried, dusted with a tangy lemon/lime mixture and lightly spritzed with south of the border flavor, it’s served in a salt rimmed glass. 21 and over, ID required.

Wait, so fried wine isn't an impossible fantasy.
Fried wine+fried cheese??

Sure. How about making batter out of a bottle of 1963 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild and battering some brie with it?

who once pulled me aside from a party to take me to his kitchen and introduce me to his deep-fryer, cradling it like his firstborn. The image will never leave me.

I'm really hoping deep-fryer isn't code for anything else. Yes, I have the mind of a 15 year old.

Pretty sure he loves that deep fryer more than... anything else.

Fried Snickers one of the best things I've had at the Texas State Fair.

in this world haven't been fried at this point? Every year at our state fair it's something new - this year it was fried butter. Does it get any more heart clogging than fried butter? When will the madness end???
