State Fair Gets Deep-Fried Girl Scout Cookie

DALLAS (AP) - As if the Girl Scouts’ Samoa cookie isn’t sinful enough, a longtime State Fair of Texas treat provider is perfecting a way to improve the chocolate-coconut-caramel cookie for fair goers.
Deep-fry it.

Christi Erpillo’s family has served deep-fried items at the Dallas fair for 40 years. She says the Samoa is her all-time favorite cookie and she’s found a way to drop the classic into a deep fryer without getting it soggy and without losing its taste.
She tells The Dallas Morning News the Samoa embellishment is intended to help the Girl Scouts celebrate their 100th anniversary.
Erpillo’s mother introduced funnel cake to the fair in the 1980s. In 2009, Erpillo made a splash with deep-fried peaches and cream.
The three-week State Fair of Texas opens Sept. 28.
 
The sad state of American culinary advances has been reduced to:

  • Add cheese
  • Add hot sauce
  • Wrap it in bacon
  • Deep fry it
  • combination of the above

FTFY.

I don't know about where you are, but around me, there's really been a spring of awesome local restaurants presenting very good stuff that (except perhaps the bacon) has very little to do with your list.

Tell her mom I said thanks for making funnel cakes, they're my fave when I take the family to the fair.
