Deep-fried butter.

Please tell me I'm not the only one that's kind of offended and grossed out by this. XD

Wow, my stomach just backflipped in terror. D: Ugh....why would you do that?

Because you're from Texas.







I went there.

I'm almost sure that this has happened before somewhere.

Wait, what?

You may as well just eat 4 sticks of butter if you wanted to kill yourself that fast.


The man who created the fried butter also created fried Coke, though. So, this shouldn't be surprising.

It's HEEEEEEEEERE!

And... Wow. How does that work?

And fried... Coke... How do you fry a liquid? I mean, it would just evaporate in the pan, maybe be used as something to fry something else in, but...

I have no idea how you fry Coke but it sounds horrid. XD I'm guessing you freeze the Coke and batter it before frying?

I would kill myself if I ate that.

O wait, it would do it for me.

Nah, you mix the Coke with the batter and fry it, a bit like a funnel cake. It still doesn't sound too good.

But seriously, fried butter?! Ladies and gentlemen, we've found something that frying does not make better. Not that fried Coke isn't bad enough, but at least we can all agree on butter. Maybe.

BUT YES. That is kinda disgusting. D:
I almost had the guts to try a fried snickers bar at AtlantaFest, but... I took one look and gagged. >>[/font]

So what's next? Deep-fried frying oil? This is one of the only things I've seen deep fryed that I wouldn't be tempted to try. I mean: snickers, ice cream, twinkies, cola... Sure! I'd try it once. Butter? Um, I'll pass.

Dude, I just ate... I think I've found a new food to add to the worst/scariest foods ever thread :P.

But could it kill Chuck Norris?
Oh...wait... Clint Eastwood > Chuck Norris.

I would eat this.

Also, for those who read far enough in the article, note that it comes in four flavors: regular, garlic, cherry, and GRAPE.

I guess it sounds pretty bad, but I'd still eat it. I mean...at least it's not broccoli. Ugh.

My innards feel greasy just thinking about it. I'm going to go watch some gundams so that I can feel clean.

This is old news to me, Paula Deen did this about a year or two ago.

Nate, tempura broccoli-- i.e. deep-fried broccoli --is good. XD

I'm okay with deep-frying veggies because they're not inherently bad for you. It's the frying of things that aren't even nutritious to begin with that bothers me. Well, I guess butter is nutritious in small quantities, but Snickers and Twinkies most definitely are not. XD I'm not even sure Twinkies are made from real food.

[font="palatino Linotype"]I think it's either Twinkies or Cheetos that have enough trans fat in them that you can use them as kindling for fires in small quantities...

Or....

USE A LOT THEN THEY GO BOOM! 8D[/font]

YES! Ante wants to see exploding Twinkies!
In related news, my dad didn't see deep fried butter or Coke this year. Hmm...

Sometimes I worry about Americans and their taste-buds. No, not sometimes, make that all the time! Ick.

Oh wow...that's insane.

And flavors? Seriously? Cherry deep-fried butter...that's just wrong.

I'd try this once though. I have a feeling I should wait till I'm on my deathbed to do so though; I'll have a bit right after the pufferfish.

XD This intrigued me so much I googled it. And I found this!

Though after reading it, I doubt I'll ever eat a Cheeto again :c
