When I’m on early shifts I usually have time in the morning to browse the news briefly and today came across an article on how the swine flu appears to be affecting the overweight in particular. That article mentioned a dish called the “deep fried Mars bar“, offered as an example of unhealthy food, and I went on to read up on it at Wikipedia.
This…sounds rather gross to be honest. Deep friend chocolate candy bars? Who thought about this in the first place?? Not only that, but I read that there’s also deep fried Twix, deep friend Snickers, deep fried pizza, deep friend Skittles… the list goes on.
To be honest, I have a somewhat morbid curiosity as to how it tastes, but… it’s somewhat worrisome to read that this is a popular item with young children. It’s probably no worse than a lot of the other junk food out there these days, but seriously…people just keep on finding more and more ways to eat unhealthily…

Totally gross! Makes me gag just to think/read about it. Are people so far gone that they don’t realize the danger of stuff like this? The Wiki article says they originated in Scotland and migrated across the ocean to Bondi Beach…no surprise there…sunbaked brains and deep fried Mars bars!
Argh, everytime I look at the pic, I feel like I want to barf…quick, another post! 😉
