It's been said that you can deep-dry pretty much everything, and plenty of people have made it their goal to prove the point. American fairs are the place to find oil-scorched goodies such as Mars bars, twinkies, even deep-fried butter. As Thanksgiving appraoches, we've noticed a lot more people taking to the idea of deep-fried turkey, which is reportedly more juicy than a baked or smoked option.
All this leads us to ask: Is there any line to be drawn? Is there anything that you really shouldn't deep-fry?

a FROZEN turkey.
haha.
Absolutly not!!! Lol honestly theres things I eat deep fried that I would never touch otherwise. Sadly, I have yet to try deep fried turkey, I am hopfully that at least one of my friends familys will do it, so I can steal some left overs!!
Anything, really. There's not much that should be deep-fried, IMO.
Snacks like Oreos and Twinkies, also PB&J.
I think we already crossed the line when Deep-Fried Butter was invented.
Crisps,
sandwiches
tomato sauce
burgers
No one should dare interfere in our quest for delicious deep fried enlightenment...except for that pesky heart disease.
@my_final_username@xanga - actually deep fried burgers are quite tasty!
How about we just skip all the formalities and deep fry canola oil?
@live_for_love@xanga - lol, i wonder why they haven't thought of that
@karmavore - Haha give it time, I'm sure it'll show up
I am a fan of french fries... but that is as far as I take my deep fried delights... I could see myself eating deep fried zucchini maybe, or mushrooms... but I find deep frying robs flavour from foods, and just makes them oily, leaving a bad taste in my mouth.
@midnightblu3@xanga - that's the one i thought of right away D:
You probably shouldn't deep-fry corn on the cob. Or sushi.
my question is is there anything that SHOULD be deep fried?
Anything fried in Rice Bran Oil is good for me!
Anything can be fried but sometimes it gets a little out of hand. Most outrageous I have probably ever done is fry a battered hot pocket or a reese's peanut butter cup....
Here we deep fry a lot of stuff. Like pizza which is amazing but mars bars should definetly not be deep friend or any kind of chocolate or sweetie.
I had a shitty deep-fried ice cream. So, its ice cream.
deep-fried turkeys are SO good.
and the answer to your questions; no and no.
HELL NO.Well - maybe ice cubes.
toes.
I do not want to eat deep fried sushi >:[ Tempura is different, but wouldn't want to eat re-deep fried tempura.

I doubt deep fried rubber would taste very nice :/.
