I tried corn dogs for the first time a couple years ago after being curious about them for years and honestly I was pretty disappointed, though I'm not sure what else I expected

Corn dog quality can vary greatly, and is highly dependent on environment when consuming

Fried cornmeal batter isn’t bread, but I defer to your vast food expertise.

Macarons are overrated. In fact, I usually go out of my way to avoid them if they’re available for consumption.

to be fair, she was probably eating ones in paris that are better (relatively) than anything you can get here.

First, it’s cinnamon rolls topped with chili and now you don’t eat corn dogs? What kind of godforsaken hell is this midwest you continually attempt to end discussions with?
