[livejournal.com profile] tompurdue... the gauntlet had been filled with turducken, wrapped in bacon, injected with cheese product via a caulking gun, and thrown into a deep-fryer.

Why do I get the feeling these two tags will always be used at the same time?

You'd asked about being able to use my patio on the 9th for a dress rehearsal for your show? Assuming it's not raining, we're on. If it is raining, we can use the family room. Let's discuss details.

Awesome! My e-mail is curseyourichards at gee male dot com.

Either way sounds sufficient to me!

Who the hell fries a Cadbury egg?

That's going to give me nightmares.

When I was in London for a semester in 2003, the McDonald's there had Cadbury Creme Egg McFlurries.

By the way, I've had fried Snickers, and they are awesome in the most shameful way possible.

Fried Snickers?

God, all this fried candy stuff makes me ponder about how bored someone has to be to actually want to fry a candy bar in the first place. I mean, there's a time and place to try something new, but candy? Jeez.

Then again, I shouldn't really judge until I've tried it. I have no place to be calling it weird when I've eaten fried worms, fried scorpion, and fried beetles. Cheese-flavored beetles at that.

You'd be amazed how instantly delicious even already-delicious things can be made through deep-frying. Deep friend PB&J for example... mmm!

Were they covered in cheese dust like Doritos or injected with cheese with a syringe?

Cheese dust. Though, I'm sure there is a version somewhere out there with the latter method.

Mmm, weird foods.

In my case, it's the other way around. Once you've got all that fat heated up for the deep fryer, you're just gonna deep fry anything that comes to hand.

That was the one that got me. Easter is over, but if somebody can find me a leftover Cadbury Creme Egg, I am TOTALLY deep frying it at Turkeymas.

I love that they're including such fine traditional foods as toad in the hole (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toad_in_the_hole). Ah, for days of old when people assumed they'd not live longer than about sixty or so and ate accordingly.

haha, oh my god, it's real!

I think that makes things even better: it combines "oh my god, who the hell would think to make this?! Surely no one would ever *eat* it!" oddities alongside, "Yes, people TRADITIONALLY have and do eat this crap! And it's every bit as healthy!"

It's too early in the morning for me to be looking at sites like this...

Hell, I was looking at this at 2:30 in the morning, enjoying a mighty beer, and thinking to myself in that beer-induced middle-of-the-night mentality, "... I want McDonalds so bad right now. I haven't had a Quarter Pounder for years but I want one SO bad now."

Here, a preview of what awaits you in Montreal:

Seriously, I thought I had achieved the peak of decadence by baking brownies with Kit Kats in them... Now I feel like a pinnacle of health!

I've always been curious about the Oki Dog: http://d0.biggestmenu.com/00/00/bd/808680a28990baee_m.jpg
Two hot dogs wrapped in a burrito with chili, pastrami, cheese, and I've heard cabbage in some recipes. Mind you you're apparently supposed to eat two bites, want to retch and then gush about the novelty/weird historical significance of it the rest of the time.

Some things you gotta do just to do 'em, and--providing you survive the experience--tell the tale.

But that... wow. Uh, let me know how it is?

The vegetarian in me looked at that web site and ***cringed***.

The web site is perfect for my diet plans, though. I just go to the web site, look at the offerings, and completely lose my appetite.

Deep-fried banana split and Cadbury eggs. Oh, the humanity. B/

Oh come now, you've been to Turkeymas before. Those kinds of deep-fried horror aren't much worse!

And apropos of both this and your Vegas trip, there's the Secret Menu at in-n-out burger. There's a semi-secret menu, with the 3x3 burger (3 patties, 3 cheese) and the 4x4 burger.

But the register will let you type in any numbers you want. So somebody ordered the 99x99:

wwwwwwwwwwwow. But what's the point in getting one of those? Like, for an office party, everyone grab a fork?

Dear lord, but I wand an In-n-Out Burger now. I didn't get nearly enough of those when I was out there.

Point? Who said there had to be a point?

The original blog entry (which I couldn't find) had a small group of guys working their way through it. Apparently by the time they got to the middle it was all cold and congealed and gross, but being guys there was no way they were going to leave the job undone.

... And this is why I will never be a true artist.

Yeah, really, that's just the problem. Food like that doesn't last too long. It's not like pizza, which takes on a whole other life when it gets cold.
