Machine Shed Restaurant will be serving these treats at the 2011 Mississippi Valley Fair

The Machine Shed continues to bring the extreme and the delicious to the Mississippi Valley Fair adding "Deep Fried Butter" and "Deep Fried Pop Tart" to the 2011 fair menu. The chefs have worked all winter long and have created a pure butter concoction deep fried with a crisp coating.   This treat is crunchy and oozing with melted butter and only a mere 250 calories for each butter ball.  "We had over 50 taste testers over the past few months try several different variations of the fried butter and overwhelming we got a 'gotta have more' opinion" states Jeff Grunder, Manager at the Machine Shed restaurant.  Grunder continues: "The deep fried strawberry pop tart is my favorite, it tastes like a warm strawberry cake, I think it's the only way to eat a pop tart from now on!".   Deep Fried Butter sells for $5 and you get 4 "butter balls", while the Deep Fried Strawberry Pop Tart sells for $2 each.

You will ONLY find Deep Fried Butter and Deep Fried Pop Tarts at the Machine Shed booth at the Mississippi Valley Fair. The Mississippi Valley Fair runs Tuesday Aug. 2nd - Sunday Aug. 7th, 2011.
