KFC Doubles Down and Loses...

A couple of weeks ago, Slashfood wrote about the KFC Double Down Chicken Sandwich.

"the Vancouver Sun estimated that the sandwich -- two chicken fillets sandwiching Swiss and pepper jack cheeses, bacon and 'the Colonel's sauce' -- weighs in at 1,228 calories. Maynard told Slashfood that KFC estimates the sandwich's caloric count at 'just under 600,' though the final nutritional data is not in."

That may sound like the least healthy thing you can eat, but creative minds will stop at nothing. I introduce...Deep...Fried........Butter.

"Gonzales, who has twice won top honors in the State Fair of Texas' annual contest for best new midway food, is back this year with deep-fried butter, a dish that's drawing gasps from even the most hard-arteried eaters. The snack will go up against fried peanut-butter-cup macaroons, deep-fried peaches and cream, fried stuffed peppers and fried pork chips with gravy for the Big Tex crown this Monday. And it comes in four flavors....original, garlic, cherry and grape."

And here's the Deep Fried Butter.

A friend made some deep fried butter at a barbecue (a proper barbecue, not 'burgers and dogs) a few years ago. Of course I tried it, and it was basically what you'd expect... :)
