    I didn't get a chance to try any of that fried stuff this past year (I haven't gone to the fair in about 6 years). I was in my first tri and it was VERY hot and I was very ill due to MS. The only thing I ate was a hot dog and one of those huge dill pickles. mmmm! But if I go next year I'm bringing home like 100 bucks worth of fried everything. :D

    I really want to try that chocolate covered bacon. LOL

    This thread is funny- I am English but live in the US and just spent 14 days back in England, where everything I said was "americanized" so I kept getting corrected LOL

    Its just easier to say the AMerican words so not to confuse the Americans, but when I am in England I get so confused when I say a sentence it takes me a about a minute to choose the correct word for the country LOL

    :rofl: @ shipping bacon bars internationally! I suppose that's one way to get them!

    Rachel - That would be SO hard. I speak both pretty fluently... and it is hard to choose sometimes. If I've been on BnB too much, I have a hard time in my "real" life to choose what words to use from time to time! LOL

    Oh! Didn't realize you were in WI! LOL That's easier! :) They have them at Fresh Market... There's one in WI... but not necessarily near you. I wouldn't have guessed where you were... Was thrown off by the PXY-887... Thought it was something international I didn't know about! LOL Google tells me its not international at all! :haha:

    I don't get how chicken fillet (we call them breasts) can be pronounced differently in other places... it has a t on the end :wacko:
