Last day of the Fair Food Facts

Happy Sunday and last day of NC Fair things. 
While I was sitting here in the Royal Madi Chair, Mom read some pretty interesting Fair Food Facts to me. I really expected to be starving when she finished.  I wasn't BUTT my TUSH felt bigger!!
Mom said she gained ten pounds just reading it.
Here we go!!


#10.  Corn on the Cob was the only healthy thing there.  It only had 50 calories; 150 with butter
#9.  1 piece of fudge has 150 calories
#8.  Corn dog has 300 calories
#7. Pulled Pork Sandwich and a Ham biscuit have 350 to 400 calories
#6.  Two cheese sticks have 400 calories
#5. 1 caramel apple has 450 calories
#4. Chili dog has 500 calories
#3. Funnel Cake has 600 calories
#2.  A cup of French Fries has 600 calories.....
OH MY CATS before we get to the grand finale we'll take a commercial break to tell you

Evidently Pigs do fly!!!!
#1.  A Krispy Kreme Burger with cheese has 1,500 calories...and we expect (but don't know for a fact)  1,450 of those calories are Trans FAT!!!  BTW the price of the KK burger is $6.00
Mom and Dad were very good they both had a biscuit and they shared French Fries!!

  3. Hi Madi & Mom,

    We knew there was a really good reason (other than the fact it sounds a little gross) to avoid the KK burger .... that's mega calories. And even though we really like funnel cake we haven't touched one in several years.

    Fresh corn on the cob sounds like the best bet and it is definitely our favorite.

    I think I have gained a few pounds just reading this post!

    Hope you all are having a great weekend.

    Hugs & Purrs,
    J and Cindi Lou

  4. Blog Mom is glad she didn't know that about funnel cake when she was going to more fairs and things. But she knows now. The Krispy Kreme burger is not a temptation. She wants to know does she get to deduct some calories for not wanting one? Probably when pigs fly, huh?

    lotsa licks, Lola

  5. We didn't know what a krispy kreme burger was so mum googled it. Yuk!!! It said you can even have chocolate on your bacon! Mum said she likes chocolate and she likes bacon, but not together!

  7. OMD! I think I just gained a few pounds reading this. Everything sounds SO YUMMY!!! And I always suspected that pigs fly (when no one is looking, of course!)

  11. Madi, are you sure your parents weren't at some sort of 70's fest? Flying pigs? Sounds pretty strange to me! As you know, there is nnothing on that list I wouldn't eat! I think I will take a nap and dream of fair foods now!

  16. Y'know I've never been to Krispy Kreme nor do I want to go...just the smell outside their buildings is enough to make you want to run away.

    And yes, those nasty trans fats. I on the other hand, just had another delicious scoop of freshly made apple crisp with oatmeal...and topped with fat free yogurt...did I do good? How come then, do I gain.

    LOL

    Well, I'll be darned, pigs DO fly.

  17. Hi Madi, we just love the flying pig! Those were some very interesting food facts and in fact we are now quite hungry having read about all that food!
    Fortunately we like corn on the cob but we do like a little butter!

  23. Hi Madi! Me and my mom are finally BACK from the places we were at that I can't tell you about until tomorrow. Thanks for coming by to say hi to me even though I haven't been around.

    Okay, firstly, that picture of you is pawfectly PAWFECT! Nextly, I don't know why humans worry so much abouts calories. All they gotta do is eat what they want and then go chase rabbits or something. It's pretty simple, don't you think?
