When we think of county fairs, many things come to mind. Most of those things are fried. They are also expensive and probably bad for us in the long term. In the short term, they are tasty, provide a modicum of nourishment, and aren’t instantly debilitating.
First, we board a roller coaster manned by some shady figure, one we wouldn’t normally trust, but his wares are expensive, so we take our seats. Then, after a few twists and turns, we’ll again be in position to hand over our life savings for more fried foods. But enough about the election. There’s still a bit more dog and pony before we arrive at that point. There’s also all-day hash browns, and they’re pretty delicious so long as you’re not really paying attention or are sufficiently hungover, which is recommended.

Those fryers aren’t limited to potatoes, either. Iowa may be the beginning, but it’s not the end.

Probably weren’t deep fried. Actually, even if they were, this isn’t part of making America great again, regardless of your affiliation.
I almost just choked on a kale chip and all I could think was that this never happens with Cinnabons.

Maybe there was some residual oil on it, but otherwise this isn’t making anything great.

It may seem to be a dark time, but it’s always the most clichéd before the accurate cliché or something. That’s why we’ve got to pull our bootstraps up by ourselves and get out there and do something. Something meaningful and powerful. It’s always morning somewhere, particularly at McDonald’s, where the all-day breakfast menu is getting larger and more in charger.
