fried coke at the State Fair
Oct 7th
Fried coke. Roll it up dip it in grease and pour coke over it. Be sure to use diet coke. Being served at today’s Red River shootout.
Now, vendor Abel Gonzales Jr. has come up with a new artery-clogging concoction for the State Fair of Texas. It’s fried Coke.
Gonzales deep-fries Coca-Cola-flavored batter. He then drizzles Coke fountain syrup on it. The fried Coke is topped with whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and a cherry. Gonzales said the fried Coke came about just from thinking aloud.
oh yeah, and the score with 4:46 to go after a Charles romp. Texas w the ball, obviously.
