My friend Kevin here is returning home from a club the other night, rather drunk. As we always do, he stopped at a kebab shop (one of our personal favorites, the Broomhill Friery) for a big carton of chips.
In his somewhat drunken stupor, he asked the proprietor of the shop if he would deep fry random food if we brought it in. And in a complete surprise to both Kevin and the rest of us, he agreed to it.
And thus this evening, we showed up at the Broomhill Friery with a pack of Oreos, a triple chocolate muffin (chocolate muffin with chocolate chips and chocolate pudding inside), and a Snickers bar. The two girls working behind the counter battered them up and gave them the deep frying of a lifetime.
Now I do know that deep fried Oreos and Snickers have been done before, but it was my first time with these foods... and they were amazing to say the least. Needless to say, the other Brits thought we were quintessential Americans with our obsession with unhealthy food combinations.
No worries though, they liked us a lot. We're apparently welcome back any time. And we are most certainly taking them up on that offer; we have some sinister plans in mind for our next foods to deep fry...
As for pictures of this momentous occasion, those on Facebook should be able to see them.
ya know, i've heard about deep frying things like that. but never experienced it...
