it's actually delicious...the Black pudding and the haggis... not the chocolate.. but I have heard the Mars Bar is delicious as well, but I never want to try that.

They say if you freeze ice cream solid , coat it in a thick batter and deep fry.. the ice cream will still be cold inside...when it's cooked

Sort of like the Baked Alaska I made in 7th grade Chef's class, the ice cream middle is insulated by the meringue coating while the cake is in the oven to caramelize the meringue.

I added a link that shows deep fried ice cream... haha.
They 've more inventive minds that me.
 
Look at this list of deep-fried foods from the Texas State Fair. Deep fried pizza? Child's play! (Disclaimer... I've never tried any of these.)

https://www.mentalfloss.com/article/31488/25-deep-fried-foods-texas-state-fair

1. Bubblegum​

It's actually bubblegum-flavored marshmallows, battered and deep-fried and sprinkled with Chicklets. Do you chew this? Eat it? Who knows, but you can buy it.

2. Butter​

Not too different from toast.

Frozen balls of butter, battered and fried and served with sauce. Because why not.

3. Beer​

Fried beer at the 2010 state fair.

Nope, this isn’t beer-battered. This is beer: battered and fried. The beer is poured into little ravioli pockets which burst with scalding suds upon first bite.

4. Peanut Butter Banana Cheeseburgers​

Elvis would've probably made a special trip to Texas just to sample this.

5. Coke​

It's basically Coke-flavored funnel cake.

An enterprising chef found a way to deep-fry soda without the third-degree burns.

6. Chicken Fried Bacon​

Could make even a vegetarian's mouth water.

This is self-explanatory. And probably delicious.

7. Jelly Belly Jelly Beans​

It's really just batter with some Jelly Belly jelly beans mixed in, like a fritter on a sugar high.

8. Cadbury Crème Eggs​

It's probably delicious.

Easter doesn’t have nearly enough fried foods... until now.

9. Pizza​

It's not just pizza ingredients inside a ball of dough. No. It's an actual slice of pizza, breaded and fried.

10. Kool-Aid​

Washed down best with Kool-Aid.

The bright pink ones are cherry-flavored; the darker ones are grape.

11. French Fry-Coated Hot Dog​

Not only do fry-coated hot dogs actually exist—they're not too hard to make at home.

12. Pecan Pie​

This particular fried pie hails from New Jersey's State Fair Meadowlands.

There's probably not a more delicious way to gain five pounds.

13. Latte​

Do you like your latte liquid or solid?

This one is a bit of a misnomer, it seems; the fried part is a sweet dough, which is topped with coffee-flavored ice cream, whipped cream and shaved chocolate.

14. PB&J​

The brown bag lunch of your dreams.

There's almost no chance that this tastes bad.

15. Salsa​

Deep-fried condiments can't be a good thing, but according to some people, this is the best-tasting item at the fair. It's salsa mixed with masa, then rolled in crushed tortilla chips before frying.

16. Pop-Tarts​


Toasted Pop-Tarts are good. Deep-fried Pop-Tarts are better.

17. Margaritas​

Doesn't look quite as appetizing as a regular margarita.

Funnel cake batter made with margarita mixer, fried and soaked in more margarita, all served in a salt-rimmed glass.

18. Club Salad​

The thing about salad is that it’s good for you, usually. Not Fernie's Fried Club Salad—a spinach wrap filled with ham, bacon, cheese, chicken, tomatoes, shredded lettuce and carrots, fried and served on a bed of lettuce.

19. S'mores​

S'more of this, please.

20. Pumpkin Pie​

Pumpkin fry.

It's a pocket filled with pumpkin pie, rolled in cinnamon and ginger snaps, fried and served with whipped cream.

21. Potato Salad​

Think regular potato salad is a little too moist for your taste? Encasing it in a crunchy shell solves that problem.

22. Cheesecake​

Dessert hot pocket.

These are amazing, actually.

24. Guacamole​

Look, it's healthier than deep-fried butter.

No chips needed for this deep-fried guacamole.

25. Frito Pie​

Frito pie eaten right from the Fritos bag can get a little messy—these bites are a little more manageable.

When we were in the UK in 2005, we encountered deep-fried-Mars-bars sales at a boot sale. Didn't try it. And now D.F. pizza!

I have to ask myself, "why do they do it? what can this possibly mean??🤔😱

I'll stand in line for the chicken fried bacon!
 
The only things I would eat on that map is very small amounts of lard.

I have eaten deep fried icecream (chinese shops do it as a dessert here) but generally I dont like battered things.
