Ah've no lived!
Is this the right time to extol the virtues of deep fried Mars Bar?
Tracy: Well-- That call -- That call means you just murdered me. Mal: No, son. You murdered yourself. I just carried the bullet a while.

Bwah.
Deep Fired Mars Bars are truly the evilist invention ever.
Student-y scoffing for the conscience free
Crispy on the outside, sweet sweet gooiness in the centre.
Yummy.
Edit: with a bottle of Irn-Bru of course.

"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.
You know, in theory I will try anything. The weirder the better. But somehow I never could bring myself to try a deep fried mars bar. It seemed too much like just eating lard by the spoonful. But friends have assured me they're nice. (Although they were very very pissed at the time)
this is a turnip and its flesh is white. these are swedes and their flesh is orange. this, according to Google, is a rutabaga. Which is, so the site assures us, essentially a cross between a turnip and a cabbage.
It's like root vegetable slash.

Lard by the spoonfull is a strict health diet compared to Deep Fried Mars Bar wickedness.
One per lifetime is the recommended dosage for the above.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

You'll note that they look exactly the same.
"The name comes from the Swedish rotabagge, which is why this vegetable is also called a Swede or Swedish Turnip."

"Mister Spock is on his fanny, sir. Reports heavy damage."
Yeah, rutabagas are just really big (and concomitantly more grain-y) turnips. Purple on top, off-white to downright yellow all around.
Like beets, if beets had had the everliving shit scared out of them. Only more fibrous.

And DX solves a mystery...
I have heard of deep fried mars bars. I'd first heard of them from a friend studying in scotland, but then they became big things at state fairs, here. SO tempting sounding, but I'm afraid eating one would make my heart stop. Gawd.

That's how I feel about it. Only without the tempting.
(Mind you, I had a Sticky Toffee Pudding to die for this afternoon. Really. So it's not like I'm the poster child for healthy eating, here.)
