The deep fried pickles look ok.

Have you seen the epic meal vids on youtube? So many calories!

K - my mother used a rather interesting word the other day that shocked me. When I expressed my shock she told me it was no big deal in England. Now keep in mind she is in her 60's so maybe back then it meant little but.......she refered to a woman's "fanny" as a "snatch". Not an appropriate word for that area where I come from! LOL

I have never heard it called that. Is that an offensive term in the US?

snatch......kind of depends how it is said. It can be offensive or can be just a slang term.

Deep fried Mars bars...OMG Baloo...I need eye bleach....but I agree with you on a nice piece of Rock.....YUMMY.....as for the other deep fried stuff....that can only happen in the USA....the Brits are nutjobs but the Yanks are pure insane.
