There are few things in the universe more evil than carnival food. Check out Newsweek's list of the 7 most unhealthy carnival foods.
7. Cotton Candy
One large cone of spun sugar is 200 calories. It's practically health food.
6. Snow Cones
The sugary syrup used is 100 calories an ounce. A 12 oz. snow cone will
end up being 550 calories, depending on how syrup-heavy you take it.
5. Corn Dogs
a.k.a the "nitratesicle" contains 375 calories and 21 grams of fat and 1170 mg. of sodium.
4. Deep Fried Twinkie
One deep fried Twinkie contains 420 calories and 32 grams of fat. That doesn't include any sugar or jelly topping.
3. Deep Fried Oreos
Each cookie contains 157 calories and 10.1 grams of fat.
2. Funnel Cake
An 8.3 oz. cake contains 760 calories, 44 grams of fat, 80 grams of carbs and 20 mg. of cholesterol.
1. Deep Fried Candy Bars
Everything from Snickers, Mars, Milkyway and 3 Musketeers is deep-fried
and slapped on a stick. A king-size, deep-fried bar has over 700
calories and 44 grams of fat.
What's your favorite carnival food?
I've always been partial to Australian Battered Potatoes (Yes, Dan Quail, there is an E).
I just had one of those turkey legs on Saturday!
The people that eat the big turkey legs look like they're on the way to a Henry the VIII dinner party.
The smoked turkey legs are really gross. They taste like ham. I hate it when one meat tastes like another meat. I don't think food should get mixed up like that.
I love the fried candy bars.
