Fried Frito pie is the king of foods at Texas fair

DALLAS — The Texas Fried Frito Pie is the winner of the biggest food prize for this year’s state fair.
The battered and fried blend of chili, cheese and Fritos won the Best Taste award Monday at the sixth annual Big Tex Choice Awards. Prize winners usually attract long lines from fairgoers.
Concoction creator Michael Thomas says he and his partners spent six months experimenting with different batters, chilis and chips.
Fried Beer won the Most Creative award. It will be served this year along with the Deep Fried Frozen Margarita.
The fair runs Sept. 24 to Oct. 17.
Well, fried butter was the hot commodity at last year's state fair. It even had Oprah in town to scarf some down. But this year totally blows that out of the water. Fried Friot Pie and fried beer? Are you kidding me? If I wasn't sure I would immediately keel over and die after eating it I would have already booked my flight to Dallas. Bless you Texas Fair foodmakers for creating fried happiness.
