Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

Cheeseburger fries. Boy, these sound yummy to me:
Looking to emulate the success of Chicken McNuggets and fried mozzarella sticks, the group is hoping to inject some red meat into the American snack food diet with cheeseburger fries. The fries, which look like a squat version of standard french fries, are made of a meat and cheese compound that tastes - as the name suggests - like a cheeseburger.
Breaded, deep fried, and served with ketchup or barbecue sauce, cheeseburger fries have found their way onto menus in several states, including Nebraska, Minnesota and Texas, since June. There is also a version being made available to public school cafeterias.
The last sentence made my wife wonder aloud:
They are marketing this product to public schools. I wonder if they will be able to market this to the schools in Arkansas? You know...the ones that are so concerned with student health they are measuring body fat? Wanna bet they start serving these deep-fried fat sticks for lunch soon?
I'm not sure how this will play out with the "fitness nazis" of the world, but I know this much: as fit as I was in grade school, you can bet your bottom dollar that I would have been eating cheeseburger fries for lunch before I would have been eating corn, beans, and tossed salad.
