By Bruce Felps Credit Woodrow Nation’s Abel Gonzalez, class of ’88, with taking State Fair of Texas fried foods to such acclaimed levels. He masterminded Fried Butter, Fried Coke, and Fried Cotton Candy, the latter of which didn’t make it out of the testing kitchen, and this year debuts Deep Fried Pineapple Upside Down Cake.
By Bruce Felps I keep highly sophisticated banking records. You shut up. We’re not married anymore. Anyway, I use a hand-written ledger and round up expenditures to the nearest dollar.
