Byline: Dan Shingler Commentary
We join our intrepid columnist, who rolls on in search of this year's ultimate deep-fried fair delight, only to find heartache at the Twinkie stand
If a trainload of sugar were to collide with a trainload of fat in a giant fireball, you'd probably be left with something you could sell at the New Mexico State Fair.
Last year's "ultimate decadence" was the deep-fried Twinkie. This year, I had to find its successor, something better, as if there could be such a thing.
I had a tip: Someone was selling deep-fried cookie dough.
Surely, there would be a big sign with a long line of sugar junkies out in front. Maybe a defibrillator.
No such luck.
