Deep Fried Texas Butter Balls

No, that isn't the name of a sexual position I invented in college but rather one of the latest offerings at this years Texas State Fair:

DALLAS — Last year, Chicken Fried Bacon and a Fried Banana Split took top honors at the annual Big Tex Choice Awards to pick the best new foods at the State Fair of Texas.

This year, the competition is equally innovative (and similarly deep-fried).

• Deep Fried Butter could push the grease-o-meter to a new high. "100 percent pure butter is whipped 'til light and fluffy, then specially sweetened with a choice of several flavors." It is then surrounded by a "special dough" and quick-fried.

You can check out some of the other entries at the link. The sweet jalapeno corn dog shrimp sound great but I'm afraid that the deep fried bananas foster cheesecake from last years Indiana State Fair still trumps both of them. Can deep frying get much more pornographic than this? Pray to whatever god you believe in that it can.
