| | | I saw something disturbing on YouTube! food related, just for fun
Just for fun
I can not believe my eyes!!!  YouTube - Oreo Pizza Moustache
The New Oreo's Pizza! WOW 
I can't believe that people are still trying to find new ways of basically killing humans with food! 
Why oh why would they think of something so disgusting! I can't quite believe the makers of Oreo agreed for them to do this to be honest!
and here is a link of what it looks like in real life: YouTube - Domino's Oreo Dessert Pizza
Now i would never ever eat that even if i didn't have diabetes.
what do you all think of this Debacle?

| | | I do have to admit that I did laugh out loud when I 1st saw that commercial on TV. I thought it was pretty funny.
On the commercial the pizza looks good and in theory sounds like it would taste good.
I have yet to try it, but I'm sure I will.
I will try anything - Twice.

| | I loved the commercial the first time I saw it. Doesn't look like something i'd eat....even if I could. I'm not a big cookie or pizza person. Now if it were a pizza made of Twinkies or fudge...i'd have a situation on my hands.

| | | The Texas state fair had the most disgusting stuff I ever heard of this year. Read about it in the paper -- didn't go.
Double coated breading dipped in sugar syrup, deep fried, double chocolate/greased and topped with whipped cream and more syrup, nuts etc. I think the goal is to come up with the most outrageous, fat-packed, SUGAR packed ---- delicious ----- item. I like the buttered corn on the cob. Oh, and sausage on a stick. And . . .
I have some quirky mental issues with food (broccoli looking better than chocolate cake for example), but I'm glad you all think a tiny little bit like me -- I like not feeling as wierd in this group!

For me, i'd have to be paid a HEFTY sum to eat broccoli...even covered with cheese, it's STILL broccoli!
I've always enjoyed salty more than sweet though....that corn on the cob would be a BIG temptation....my favorite fair food was always....GASP!!!! Cotton candy on a stick!!!!, preferably blue.

| | | It looks and sounds pretty good to me. I see nothing disgusting with it at all. And it's not like it's the main meal, you eat pizza for the meal and then Oreo Pizza for the dessert.

| | Haha. At our fair they had.... Deep Fried Coke.
I wanted to try it, but every time I went for some they were out  ...hopefully next year, caus' I'm curious.
For the Oreo Pizza, the first time I saw the commercial I laughed my butt off. I think it looks good... have to try it first before I could judge it though. Mmmm....

Gonzales deep-fries Coca-Cola-flavored batter. He then drizzles Coke fountain syrup on it. The fried Coke is topped with whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and a cherry. Gonzales said the fried Coke came about just from thinking aloud. 
I'll PASS!!!!!!!!!! NASTY
