The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Put the deep-fryer away and save yourself a trip to the state fair — Hostess is making Deep Fried Twinkies for you.
The funnel cake-battered sponge cake will be available for mass consumption at Wal-Mart. Keep an eye out, and have the deep-fryer on stand-by, just in case you can’t wait.

If a food item exists, someone will eventually find a way to Americanize it, i.e., deep-frying it, impaling it on a stick, or both.
Although Twisted is a British site, they know what the people want, and have created the Sushi Corndog. Prawns and avocado are rolled up beautifully in rice and nori, then it’s battering time.
To help preserve some form of sushi culture, chopsticks are used to impale the dog. Check out the whole process below.

It’s not even State fair season… and already, people are wrapping stuff in bacon and deep-frying it. Amy from Oh, Bite It! needs no excuse to bacon-wrap stuff, so she’s recently unleashed Bacon Fried Twinkies.
The recipe and technique is simple. The result is anything but… A crunchy pork shell trying to contain its sponge and creme innards. Enjoy some of your own year-round… nobody has time to wait for the fair to roll around.

It’s officially ‘deep-fry-everything’ season, which coincides with ‘food-on-a-stick’ season. So, a Deep-Fried Big Mac impaled on a fork makes perfect sense.
Brought to us by Peep My Eats, the culinary monstrosity is made possible with a only a few ingredients. And, to help stick with the theme, it’s topped with Big Mac sauce.
Enjoy the season… it’s truly the most wonderful time of the year.
We’ve often wondered how to mix two of the greatest things ever — sriracha and anything deep-fried — without the superfluous chicken wing or sriracha delivery-device.
Now, straight-up deep-fried sriracha is possible, with only a little help from cornbread batter. Brought to us by Oh, Bite It!, the recipe keeps us from having to pour sriracha directly into the fryer. Which does not work, I’ve tried. Recipe here.
