Random Fandom Feedback Anthony from Paris sent a very nice email about our first show, It's All Goo. He asked us a question about deep-frying foods: "Is this a common practice now in the US?"

We talk about the increase in deep-frying food in the USA, especially at summer fairs. We also mention the practice of deep-frying turkeys for Thanksgiving dinner.
