Vitamin Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 (edited) in Scotland they deep fry Mars bars. That sounds like something they would do at the Iwoa State Fair. Beyond gross. Edited April 11, 2014 by Vitamin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you never had a deep fried Mars bar? They do them in lots of seaside towns in England now too. I had one in Weymouth. It was tasty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OnlySunshine Posted April 12, 2014 Author Share Posted April 12, 2014 From what I have seen of them I have never wanted to try Reeses... My friend (a 2nd year Carmelite novice) LOVES Reese's. I used to love them until I started trying to avoid sweets as much as possible. When I had another one, I thought they were really disgusting. I absolutely HATE Reese's Pieces. The peanut butter is so fake tasting and very oily. :X Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maximillion Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I am like you MM, my tastes have changed radically since I gave up sugar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OnlySunshine Posted April 13, 2014 Author Share Posted April 13, 2014 I am like you MM, my tastes have changed radically since I gave up sugar. There are so many chemicals added to food in the US to keep us craving more, especially fast food. When your brain is high on those chemicals, you just want to eat more and more junk food. When you no longer eat the food, your brain (and body) have to detox and then your taste buds change. It really is astounding how much more healthy food I eat that I would not touch when I was drinking sodas, eating wheat/gluten, and eating fast food. Vegetables, especially. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
