Fried peaches/cream wins “best 2009 State Fair of Texas fried food”

Rawlins Gilliland, says:

My effort to introduce less carnivore fare with flair fizzled~~~

Called Secret Squid, it was: calamari squid circles prepared what might be described as Velveeta au gratin style--- wrapped around a sweet pickle radish (soaked in Kool-Aid for kids and Wild Turkey for adults) then encased in Yufka philo dough (with and without secret M & M pocket inserts for kiddos) and deep fried then served with a black bean/Dream Whip dollop and powdered sugar-cracked red pizza pepper atop traditional red maraschinos and soy accented Hershey’s syrup. I kept name dropping Teresa Gubbins so perhaps I was disqualified as a possible conflict of interest.
