So, we went to the NC State Fair on Friday night, and my night was complete after I had my dessert - a deep fried snickers bar. O. M. G. Generally, I do not have a sweet tooth and I don't really crave chocolate or anything like it. BUT, as with any "rule" there is an exception. Behold, my exception:
Lucky for me, the fair only comes to town once a year, because as with any food obsession comes consequence. I remember back in college when I had quite the affair with Bojangles. I really could NOT get enough and I definitely gained about 20 lbs because of it. AND this was when Bojangles didn't accept credit cards and you had to have cash… can you imagine how much worse it would have been if you could've just swiped a card?! I have NO doubt that the little piece of heaven pictured above would have the same effect if I had easy access like I did with Bojangles. At any rate, if you put powdered sugar on anything that's been fried and mounted on a stick, it's bound to be delicious. Period.

I believe that I had the same love affair with Bojangles in college (well, that and Cookout, Pokey Sticks, beer, and the UT cafeteria--and I definitely gained the same 20 lbs!) Thank goodness the fair is only here once a year, and, because it is, I don't think that calories from the fair actually count. Right? (As long as you don't go every day...?!)
