Um, just a hot dog for me, thanks.
LOL! Too bad you couldn't get anything deep-fried there! *sarcasim* =)
do you think that people ever thought that corn dogs - hot dogs dipped in batter and fried on a stick - was a strange idea?
They must have! Because I just read that corn dogs were invented at the State Fair of Texas (although the State Fair of Minnesota disagrees). So back in 1942, corn dogs were the fried coke of it's day.
Long live giant turkey legs!
