We've officially hit a new low as Americans...

Now seriously people, I know Texas is known for pushing the culinary envelope every year in finding new (previously un-fried) items to dip in boiling oil....but BUTTER?? I'll grant it's probably delicious - or at least one would hope it is, if you're risking an instant heart attack by consuming it - but it's efforts like this that make us the fat laughingstock of the rest of the world. Could we at least attempt to keep the fried food offerings to things that technically qualify as food, and not condiments?
