It seems that every year more and more deep fried items pop up at the state fairs.  This year is no different.  The newest item at the Texas State Fair is deep fried cactus.

Normally when I go to the fair I look for the funnel cakes, caramel apples, and cotton candy.  The sweets.  Last year I tried a deep fried peanut butter and jelly sandwich-which was amazing.

I've heard just about everything deep fried: Kool-aid, coke, Oreos, and who knows what else.  But this year, there is something new on the menu that kinda intrigues me.  How does deep fried cactus sound?

At first thought it sounds weird.  But the more I think about it, it sounds yummy.  I usually eat cactus for breakfast with eggs. It almost feels like deep fried cactus would taste like deep fried jalapenos.

So what would you like to see deep fried this year at the fair?
