8. Hmmm... I'm sure they're working on it
A raw tube of bread dough, filled with sloppy joe meat. Insert stick, crimp the dough at the top and bottom, and deep-fry.







then, of course, coat in powdered sugar and drizzle with Coca-Cola syrup.

20. Satay Chicken?
On a stick? With Thai peanut sauce?

And a couple of weeks ago I saw Les Stroud (Survivorman) grill up half a dozen scorpions on a stick. And eat them. Yum.

28. Scorpion-kabobs
probably not half bad with a little peanut sauce.

Just cut off that nasty stinger before you toss it on the grill.

It did not appear to be deep-fried, but I'm sure they're working day and night on that... :-)

46. Many years ago, former Strib food editor Al Sicherman
found or figured out the recipes for various State Fair foods.

At the end of the article, he had the recipe for pickle-on-a-stick. (This was the follow-up to his recipes for Hostess Cupcakes and Hostess Twinkies.)

It read:
--------
1 large pickle
1 stick

Put stick lengthwise through pickle
---------

32. I suppose one can down Jell-o shots until one downs them.
I must say, I am rather disappointed that they didn't even try Dill before discontinuing it.

38. Inspired by Lauren Hutton in Africa ...
..."African Termites on a stick!"

several years ago there was this tv show about the lovely gap-toothed model doing something to help some rural African people and at night they'd sit around the fire snatching huge flying termites out of the air and downing them, one after another. Lauren joined in! She said they were tasty-crunchy!
Bon Appitite!?
