You should come to Ireland Bighuey we do Oysters straight out of the Atlantic washed down with pints of the black stuff (Guinness) ... an excellent aphrodisiac I'm told. We even have an Oyster Festival in September ... any excuse for a party!
:lol: :lol: :lol:
That sounds good.At my age I could use an aphrodisiac. :lol: I like them fried in shake and bake put a little salsa on them and enjoy. Being in Ireland, maybe you are not familiar with the term Rock Mtn. oysters. They are bull nuts. Good if you are parylized drunk.

There's this great Japanese resturant that my friends I frequent where I live and they deep fry some veggies. I know its not healthy so its not something I have a lot of, but its is sooooooo good. My fave is the zucchini!! Its not the same type of batter used for fast food like KFC, its lighter in color and texture and not greasy at all, but I know its still not so good for the body! :wink:

The deep fry a lot of things in China too. I lived there for a month on a study scholarship and ate deep fried things EVERYDAY. The weird thing was that I ate all that deep fried stuff and took advantage of the abundant feasts they provided for us daily but I lost weight!

Send some this way, I'd like to try them! How about deep fried ice cream? It's really nice but quite rich. I thought it tasted like icecream wrapped in a donut. I tried it for the first time at a Chinese restaurant and then a few times since when I was working at Denny's as they made them. Anyone else tried it?

Well, I can't post pictures as I'm new here. But touring the mescal distillery, you eat spicy, dried crickets before sampling the mescal. Also the worms they put in the mescal are very salty.

Yes I have. Some people are just not health conscience at all. Fried food is good in moderation. However a lot of foods are fried.
