Then, mom started reminiscing about her grandma frying little leftover pieces of bread dough for her when she was a kid. Mom said she and her brother, Jack, would suggest Nana make the bread a little smaller, thus leaving more scraps for the fryer! That led to thoughts about the zeppole I see at some pizza shops, that Pennsylvania delicacy known as a funnel cake, and the variety of fried doughs we saw for sale in Valencia.
Fried dough is pretty pervasive, no? Well, no wonder...it's FRIED DOUGH! Check out this Guide to Ethnic Fried Doughs Around the World, if you dare. The Fried Dough Worldwide link is especially interesting. Now I want to try them all!

Fried dough is only second to fried potatoes. Then fried cheese is a close third. ROFL
MMmm. Love fried dough at the fair. We are partial to elephant ears with cinnamon sugar.
I'm still drooling.
