in case deep-fried pizza and deep-fried mars bars just don't fill you up...

...now you can have deep-fried butter.

Pure makes me proud so it does

 

[quimcunx]

Want.

 

[QueenOfGoths]

I'd eat it!

 

[equationgirl]

In an irn-bru batter too

 

[colacubes]

Win

 

[mitochondria]

only in Scotland

however it looks posh and I don't reckon would be any competition to Picante

 

[Citizen66]

A poor excuse really. When are they going to offer deep fried beef dripping? Fried in beef dripping.

 

[TruXta]

It beats deep fried Mars Bars.

You didn't read the link, did you?

But we all know that Scotland was the inspiration for all of the US' culinary excesses. They're just returning the love.

who cares about US, this is deep fry epicentre

I always thought this type of thing was a novelty for tourists

Nononnono. USAyans are mental for the deep fry. Scottish aren't even in same league.

If you can fry it, you can eat it. That seems to be the unofficial motto of state fair food vendors and it's one that they are happy to live by. Here's just a sampling of items that have been rolled in batter and deep fried at recent state fairs: bacon, Oreos, candy bars, Coca Cola, ravioli, caviar, Twinkies, Kool-Aid, beer, Pop Tarts, Frito pie, and a club salad. The 2011 Wisconsin State Fair offered the ultimate fried concoction: clumps of deep fried butter. Our arteries are clogging just thinking about it.

Pisshead tourists

 

[Citizen66]

Pisshead tourists

Probably. Unless they're widespread up in the highlands too.

 

[Hocus Eye.]

is it any more heart threatening than having a roll of bread with whole one of those butter portions in a plastic pot?

 

[Citizen66]

I'd have thought so. A Mars Bar is nosing towards 250 calories before you slap batter mix on it and dunk it in a frier filled with sizzling fat.

Not forgetting funnel cake which is just batter deep fried with sugar sprinkled on it.

I'm surprised Chicken Fried Bacon hasn't taken of in Scotland

experts note the dish's low nutritional benefits: "They've taken fat, they've double-coated it in fat, they've fried it in more fat, and then they've served it with a side order of fat."[2]Jane Hurley, senior nutritionist at the Center for Science in the Public Interest in Washington, D.C., stated she's "never heard of anything worse."[2] Although, the truth remains that saturated fat does not cause negative heath effects, but it rather the body's preferred source of food energy.

Deep fried beer anyone?

Just seen the last paragraph on that article. "Last year's winner of the Texas state fair fried food competition was a recipe for deep-fried butter"

Chicken Fried Bacon

The bacon is fried in chicken?

 

[Citizen66]

I bet deep fried peanut butter is lush.

Don't question it

I occasionally have a piece and peanut butter dipped in egg and shallow fried.

I lived in Glasgow once (once is enough).

Me and my mate lushed after deep fried bananas. They were called 'banana fritters' but oh my... Then we met some girls from Edinburgh. There was alot going for that posh lifestyle. Fritters weren't so much a highlight after that.
