Once more, an intrepid home cook has taken a innocent food item and elevated it to a place of crunchy, fried goodness. Today I offer you the battered and fried White Castle slider! I find this concept disgusting and yet there's a part of me that is whispering, "You could try that at home, you have a deep fryer!" Mostly, I just want to try a single bite, in order to be able to say, "Yes, I tasted that!"
Okay folks, I must ask. What's the craziest thing you've ever fried?
Cakes so amazing they'd be hard to cut into

Cookie dough. Didn't work. I think you need to freeze the dough first. We have fried mini candy bars a few times, those are good. We also like to add fried jalapeno slices to our cheese burgers.

Not too weird, but I deep-fried some bananas once. Between the batter and the soft-mushy-warm consistency of the fruit, I thought it tasted strangely like hot apple pie. So, naturally, I reached for the cinnamon sugar!

tempura fried oreos. i could only eat one but it was tasty... the cookie part kind of melted into a chocolatey goo.
the orange county fair has a vendor who picks a new food to fry every year... everything from avocados to snickers bars.

For several years, my dormitory floor had a rich tradition involving the bacon-wrapped sausage-stuffed deep-fried twinkie. (Turns out once you have the sausage, you have to have the bacon too for structural integrity.)

I had a "deep-fried cheeseburger on a stick" at the state fair last year. Ugh. NEVER AGAIN.

the only time I ever ate a normal 'slider' was when it just moved into KC (actually Overland Park) and I got a gift certificate for a costume at Halloween Party. I had a 'reversal of fortune' about fifteen minutes after eating it.
And I'm at an age where deep-fried food is at best a questionable choice due to the side effects, so deep frying a 'slider' makes it even less a choice. Urk.

I think I just threw up in my mouth a little bit.

Not unusual but not healthy: slice a hot dog lengthwise, stuff with sharp cheddar, wrap with bacon, hold in place with toothpicks and fry.
Deep fried milky way bars are a deliciously unhealthy treat.
Always wondered about frying a raw egg (think poaching in oil) but haven't ever attempted.

Ice cream...like the kind served in Mexican rest. Its really easy once you get the hang of it, and impresses the hell out of guests.
