Fletcher's Corn Dog, I'll see you in...


Three Days.

Yesterday's post highlighted all things deep fried. Today's post salutes the Grandaddy of em all, the Fletcher's Corn Dog. Useless Factoid: It was invented at the State Fair of Texas in 1942 by the Fletcher's brothers. And even though the State Fair is only open a couple weeks of the year, the Fletcher's stand sells over 500,000 per year.

Nothing quite like it. I've eaten one at 9 in the morning and had one after a crushing defeat. Even if your defense gives up 60+ points, Fletchers is there to comfort you.
