Pot-Flavored Ice Cream, Laying Off Undercompensated Workers, and Texas Inventor Patents “Deep-Fried Beer”

Have you tried fried beer? It’s offered along with fried chocolate and fried frozen margaritas at this year’s State Fair of Texas.

    If fried butter was such a hit last year, why isn’t it back this year?
