FUNNEL CAKES!!!


We talked about them on Friday's Brainbuster (scroll down to see that), and then I got this horrifying email from Diane! Check it out...

Hi Lara,
I am guilty of eating funnel cake also at the fair along with my husband! Why not – isn’t that why you go to the fair – it’s only once a year that you get to “pig out”
Well this info is on AOL today, put on your seat belt…

The Daily Plate reports an 8.3-ounce funnel cake has 760 calories. Fat and carbohydrates are scary -- 44 grams of fat and 80 grams of carbs, with only 8 grams of protein. This is all before the two scoops of vanilla ice cream, strawberry topping and dash of whip cream.

Remember ONLY once a year!!!
