Brits try Deep-Fried Oreos & Funnel Cakes in America for the first time!

[@pl3666]

The fun part of eating this stuff is when you inadvertently inhale some powdered sugar when you take a bite, and that causes you to cough a bunch of times, which then blows powdered sugar EVERYWHERE...all over your clothes, face, table, floor, etc.

[@MrMmitch32]

This reminds me of the morning before school when my best bud and I was at his kitchen table eating a bowl of cereal before the bus arrived. We were being our silly selves and he laughed which caused him to sneeze or cough then cereal and milk shot out of his nostril onto the table. That was a science/anatomy lesson I didn’t know I was going to get that morning. I was legit traumatized for a few minutes. 😂

Back in the day when I worked as a mechanic for a trucking company, we got a new safety officer. He'd never been a safety officer before, so he was watching a lot of videos and reading a lot of books about truck driver safety. In one of them he was told to look for white powder in the mustache or beard of employees as a sign of drug use. He thought this was genius (it isn't) and told half the drivers and shop guys about it. Note that _everyone_ working there had a beard or mustache. The next day one of the mechanics brought in a huge box of powdered donuts. The first guy he saw the safety guy about had a fit. Then he saw another guy, and another one. It took him until lunch time before he figured it out.

[@robertlieb4399]

Keep in mind that this is viewed as "junk food" in the USA, not proper food. The funnel cake is a longer standing tradition in "fun fairs" as you call them (decades old). It's the experience of eating warm dough with the powdered sugar, you just pull it apart, share it with your loved ones. The fried Oreo, or fried Twinkie, or fried cheesecake, etc. was a more recent novelty at fun fairs, something else for kids to beg for (and grown kids too). it's nice to see that your family enjoyed your visit. I can't imagine someone being more polite than how you interacted with the counter person.

[@coyotelong4349]

I'd go straight for the funnel cake. Yum. Not much for sweets but funnel cake is too awesome to pass up.

[@Do0msday]

Funnel cake is definitely one of those traditional fairground foods that is just so fun to eat and very delicious. The powdered sugar gives it the perfect amount of sweetness. Deep fried oreos (and anything else) are good as well, but there's just something about funnel cake that makes it the quintessential American summer fairground food. I have so many great memories of eating funnel cake while sitting on a blanket in a field watching fireworks on the 4th of July.

[@WritingAlchemist]

Funnel cake is one of my favorite treats, and I only ever get it at parish festivals, or occasionally a theme park. I might even skip a parish festival for a another if they aren't serving funnel cakes that year. Side Note: I'm from a very concentrated Catholic area and each church parish has a festival in the summer to help raise money for the church and school connected to it.

When you said you were going into the Oreos first, I was like that is going to be the hottest since it just came out. Deep fried anything you have to let cool down a few minutes or you could burn your mouth. Yes speaking from experience lol

Either way of doing deep fried Oreos is correct. When the Fair comes to my home town every year, that is the only reason I attend…..to get some deep fried Oreos!

The ones in this video looked to be too thick so the second ones are probably the correct ones. The best deep fried carnival food are the candy bars. It melts the bar and gives it a different texture.

I've been to San Francisco before....every place does a different amount & type of batter for oreos....funnel cake is eaten by ripping it apart....I love to put chocolate syrup & strawberries & whipped cream on top of the powdered sugar....churros should be crunchy on the outside & soft on the inside but light....y'all need to try an original churro....there's a Mexican restaurant that has mini churros stuffed with Bavarian Cream

Some kind of fruit topping/pie filling on the funnel cake is the way to go. Cherry is my favorite.

Funnel Cake is my favorite! Around here they also sell what’s called “Elephant Ears” which are similar to Funnel Cakes. We always get one at the fairs and share it and we always just dig in with our fingers, no knife or fork needed. Glad you enjoyed them. ❤

[@USMC-Goforth]

I love making homemade funnel cakes.

[@WUStLBear82]

The funnel cake originated in the Amish regions of Pennsylvania (originally a yeast dough before they developed the baking powder version), then spread across the Commonwealth and eventually the country. It's something you're almost required to buy at a booth on wheels at any local fair, or an amusement park snack stand... maybe as dessert after you've had a corn dog.

[@Lynn-kh5rs]

I love funnel cake. My husband and I get one to share at the start of summer every year.

[@rickarmstrong9793]

When we've made deep fried Oreos, we used pancake batter, but we made it a little thicker than normal to better cling to the cookie.

[@IAMJORDI0117]

Oh I’ve been there when I was a kid I loved it

[@silvermine2033]

Funnel cake and coffee!

[@whomagoose6897]

The way that a funnel cake is made is using a funnel with a wider filler tube. Using a thinner cake batter with baking powder. Heat cooking oil to 350°F. Fill the funnel with cake batter. Drop the batter into cooking oil. As the cake batter cooks it will rise to the top. Flip over once during cooking. When golden brown set aside to drain the oil. Powder sugar or chocolate sauce on top. Even better is to make chocolate gravy. Recipe for chocolate gravy is on line.

[@L3Dhelpguide]

Need to try an elephant ear, mainly at Summer fairs...like funnel cake but better, with cinnamon sugar coating

[@BekaB85]

Funnel cakes are my absolute favorite!! I've never had a fried oreo but I use to get them for my wife near where we lived at Lexington Market in Baltimore. She LOVED them but they were definitely smaller and with a larger oreo to dough proportion. I will have to give them a try sometime.

[@MrMmitch32]

Funnel cakes in America can be so dangerous! I moved back to my hometown to find a Funnel cake shop opened up less then 5 min from my home and it happened to be on the route home from work. I would stop to get one or two at least 3 times a week with various toppings….strawberry, Nutella, caramel sauce, banana, whipped topping….so many tasty combinations they had on the menu. The point I’m getting at is I gained like 75 lbs so fast and have yet to work it off. My American return to my childhood home story is so sad but I can say the journey to pre-diabetes was very delicious. 😢

My favorite is deep fried snickers. I love funnel cakes too. Some places have options to put fruit toppings on your funnel cake. At one of county fairs here in Ohio, I went to a stand that had gourmet funnel cakes and I think I bought the one that was a Reese’s peanut butter cup. It was delicious but you definitely couldn’t eat it all at once. I just love watching your channel ❤

*Love funnel cake!* You eat it with your fingers... just break off a piece. *That's baseball food at the ball park!* Start out with beer, a hot dog (or hot sausage or burger or italian beef), and an ear of corn dipped in butter! Then funnel cake and ice cream. Then another beer and popcorn and peanuts! Yum! (That's why baseball games are 9 innings... allows you the time to eat everything!) Rather than funnel cake, I really love *ELEPHANT EARS* with salt! Elephant ears are similar to funnel cake except flat like a pancake and tastes more like home made pizza-fritta (Italian)... I love mine with salt... some like it with powdered sugar.
