There's always a new fried item at the Iowa State Fair, and every year it gets crazier. Fried Twinkies and Oreos are passé by now, so vendors at the fair have skipped a step in the process and are just frying straight up sticks of butter. The butter obviously melts in the batter when it's fried, so it's not like you're actually sinking your teeth into a stick of lard. One taste-tester likens it to a cinnamon roll, but I still think I'll be passing this one by. Check out the link below to see what happens when you bite into it...

Fried butter on a stick - really? Why is no one in the media talking about how unhealthy this is? I don't get it. Selling this to kids should be a crime.

This looks messy but also pretty good.

I live a few miles from the fairgrounds. Not going to go to it if I can help myself. Some people go absolutely bananas (which they fry too) about the state fair. I'm waiting for deep fried porpoise or something before we go too far.

Actually, what I'm curious about is why the comments were disabled on the video link... it kind of makes you wonder what people were saying. :P

And this is why other countries make fun of Americans. Always calling us fat. Look how we are feeding ourselves.
