Let's see, for lunch, I think I'll try the doughnut burger with cheese, add the bacon, and a small side of fried butter. Oh yeah, and a
diet Coke!Their newest offering? A burger served between two Krispy Kremes, known simply as the doughnut burger.
Customer Danny Shields, 22, Indianapolis, said the burger was well worth the price. He got one with bacon and egg, which can be added for an extra cost.
At the deep-fried butter stand, twin sisters Rayanna Bibbs and Rachel Bibbs, 18, and their friend Rachel Endres, 16, all from Indianapolis, quizzed operator Blake Reas about the concoction. He said he picked up the idea from a vendor at the State Fair of Texas last year.
"When they say deep-fried butter, you think a butter stick," said Rachel Bibbs.
But that's not what it is. Blake Reas freezes the butter and covers it in cinnamon before cutting it into cubes and frying it in something that's been at the fair for years: funnel cake batter.
I wonder if you can get a punch-card for a free angioplasty?
