FALCON HEIGHTS, Minn. -- Nutritionists will tell anyone who listens that deep fried food is bad for you.
That certainly doesn't stop folks at the Minnesota State Fair from craving just about anything dropped in a deep fryer. Metromix reporter Shayne Wells from trying to push the envelope Wednesday morning, and batter and deep fry a crazy assortment of unusual items suggested on KARE 11's Facebook page.
Some were a success, like the deep fried carmel roll, while others, like gummy bears, were an abject failure. In truth, even the things that didn't work were cool, simply due to the state fair sizzle that occurs when batter meets hot oil.
