Nooooooooooo!!!!!

The other headline I thought about for this was, "Would you like a deep-fried Mars bar to go with your sangria?"

In more Times reportage about the inaugural celebration, I came across this horrifying tidbit:

"The most surprising Lone Star delicacy, at least to some locals watching in dismay, was a new drink ordered by a group of Texans: merlot with 7-Up. It was described as a Texas version of sangria."

Good heavens - I'd always thought the deep-fried Mars Bar was a Scottish thing. I've no idea where it originated now, but I'll say one thing, whoever imported it to whichever country really should have known better!
