Scotland’s National Dish, the Deep-fried Mars Bar
November 8, 2008
At last a solution to social security deficits. The Scots die young and don’t cling on their pensions for decades like Japanese centenaires, sucking the blood of younger generations. What’s their secret? The Scottish Diet, an age-old combination low in fresh fruits and vegetables and high in confectionery, fat enriched meat products, sweet and salty snacks accompanied by generous amounts of sugary drinks and alcohol.
The golden rule of the Scottish diet is that fat, sugar and alcohol should each account for at least 30% of your daily calorie intake. You may eat one serving of fruits per week, preferably as jams or preserves.
One of the best example of this wonderfully nutritious diet is Scotland’s National Dish, the deep-fried Mars bar.
The candy bar is delicately immersed in a huge vat of boiling oil where it will swim with the fishes -and the chips.
