    Default "ew, ew, ew and why" come to mind

    And we wonder why we're a nation of fatasses. Thank you, T.G.I.Friday's for once again taking all the potential healthy out of vegetables. What the hell is wrong with people?

    that's like deep fried ice cream or oreos or twinkies-why make bad things worse, and healthy food bad?

    it's not like deep fried vegetables is something new. I can't think of many vegetables that aren't served fried.

    I bet they are tasty.

    They're probably tasty but I still prefer my veggies steamed or raw.

    actually, that's not as fucked up as the commercial I saw for fried maccaroni blobs which I think is ALSO by applebee's. looked like mashed potatoe pucks until, voila, crack on of those babies open and eat the macarroni --scratching her head-- yeah, that's just too weird for me.

    Yeah. It's de-frickin-licious. I don't know about fried macaroni blobs. Im pretty sure I'd get to findout what that tastes like twice. But deep fried asparagus....now that's a girls weakness. I'm always game for steamed veggies....but yummmmy.

    Maybe for peoples that would never touch a greenbean in their life at least they are eating them? Though Im sure the badness has counteracted any goodness... they sure look tempting

    I freaking agree. With shit like this how is someone suppose to acquire a taste for veggies, kids esp.


    And dang healthy foods are so God damned expensive. Yet shitty food is cheap.

    TGIF knows their market, that's all I can say about that.
    Idealism is fine, but as it approaches reality, the costs become prohibitive.

    One chick on the Food Network... oh hell I forget her name.... she did a show on Healthy Alternatives To Fast Food.... and included fried broccoli and cauliflower florettes. I'll see if I can dig it up via the net...

    Found it! It was Everyday Italian with Giada De Laurentiis....



    Parmesan Broccoli and Cauliflower Salad
    Recipe courtesy Giada De Laurentiis
    Show: Everyday Italian
    Episode: Fast Food That Won't Weigh You Down

    2 1/2 cups bite-sized broccoli florets
    2 1/2 cups bite-sized cauliflower florets
    2 eggs, lightly beaten
    1 cup grated Parmesan
    1/2 to 1 cup olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
    4 cups lightly packed fresh spinach leaves
    1/2 lemon, zested
    1 lemon, juiced
    1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
    1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

    Place the broccoli and cauliflower in a large bowl. Toss with the beaten eggs to coat evenly. Place the Parmesan in a large tray or baking dish and dredge the vegetables in the cheese, pressing to coat evenly.

    Pour olive oil in a large heavy skillet until the olive oil is 1/4-inch deep, about 1/2 cup depending on the size of your skillet. Warm the olive oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, carefully add the Parmesan-coated vegetables. Do not overcrowd the pan. Cook in batches, if necessary. Let the vegetables cook until a crust forms, about 3 minutes per side. Turn the vegetables only when they easily release from the bottom of the pan. Drain on paper towels and season with salt.

    Place the spinach in a large bowl. In a small bowl, whisk together the lemon zest, lemon juice, extra-virgin olive oil, salt, and pepper. Drizzle the spinach with the vinaigrette and toss to coat. Add the Parmesan coated vegetables. Toss and serve.




    Totally not how those greenbeans are fried, but hey.... maybe this recipe will work for ya'll at home instead?

    Hahaha I HAD the fried macarroni balls at tgi fridays. They rock.

    But I was also feeding a bunch of kids, so it wasn't long before we used them as projectiles because when they hit someone they steamed but werent hot enough to hurt. Basically it was like 8 of us teaming up against the other dude and the youngins that liked him that we were out with....then we threatened a passerby chick that was flirting with the friend. I wonder if he called her.

    I love kids. And I love giving em back.

    I would honestly say that right now there is this deep fried marshmallow chocolate desert that is served at a local ritzy restaurant that I think comes with a reaper sicle. It's a deep fried casing that's filled with small marshmallows and chocolate while it's still hot then has hot fudge poured on it in the middle coupled with two scoops of ice cream.

    This food takes your breath away. You're wondering when you're done if you could possibly love as much as that.

    I don't know. Wouldn't a green bean be healthier than a potato fried? I'd take the green bean over a plate a french fries...

    We had some time to kill at Newark Airport and stopped at TGIF for a drink. My fiance got those green beans and they looked nasty as hell. I wouldn't even touch them if I did eat battered and fried stuff.

    He liked them though. But most guys I know around here would eat shit if it was battered and deep fried.

    The only thing it's missing is cheese sauce. J/K. I think by the time you've deep fried something like a green bean within an inch of it's life, it's lost most of it's nutritional value. I wouldn't count this as eating a vegetable.
