First, let’s talk about Coke Rewards. Every 12-pack and 20-pack and 24-pack of cans of Coca-Cola brand soda and every individual bottle of soda has a Coke Rewards number on it, making it worth anywhere from 3 points to 20.
You may have collected a few, but let’s face it. You’re not going to really do anything with them, are you?
Why not pass them on to me? I’ve been collecting them since the program started and my goal is to get as many as humanly possible. I go through 5-10 cases of Diet Coke myself a week, but that’s not enough!
There are a few bloggers who are my favorites in the whole world because they share them constantly – thanks to the gorgeous, funny, irrepressible AnnieB, Mr. Fabulous, and the most prolific, Wayne! So, if you want to be like the cool people, get your Coke Rewards points and email them to me at my first name at my last name dot com. I’m on good terms with the Big Guy, so I know that there is a special place in heaven for people who give me Rewards points.
Secondly, I’d like to help out my meal ticket good friend Wayne. He is obsessed with those horrible, horrible LOLcats, and one of his favorite LOLcat sites, ICHC (I Can Has Cheezburger?) is having a contest for poker-themed user-generated LOLcat pics. The winner gets to go to Vegas.
You can check out all of his entries on his blog, or just click on the one I chose as my favorite out of his and go vote for it. Just give him 5 cheeseburgers for this one, and if he gets enough votes, he’s off to Vegas. I have it on good authority that if Wayne wins, he plans on bringing back hookers and shrimp cocktail for everyone who voted for him.

Thirdly, I created an iPhone wallpaper for those of you who are cool enough to have iPhones but not cool enough to have awesome wallpaper:
Finally, does anyone have any more food suggestions if we do another Fryday this weekend? So far, we’ve done eggrolls, chicken, pizza, PB&J, grilled cheese, Oreos, EL Fudge, Snickers, apple pie, taquitos, chimichangas, hotdogs, Twinkies, and a Cheeseburger Bite from 7-11. I’m open for other ideas . . . except pickles. Uck!
Enjoy this post? Try these:Today’s plan
I’m thankful for you.

Please add.
Yes, we’ve done twinkies.
No, we don’t want to do pickles.
There’s been other shit too, but those seem to be suggested the most.

I’d like to help you out on those points thingies, but I’m a Pepsi man myself. Well, Sierra Mist Free. But it’s a Pepsi product.
Did you try deep frying Twinkies? Ding Dongs? Chocolate Chip Cookies? Doritos? Bacon? What about vegetables? Brussel sprouts? Eggplant? Zucchini? Squash? And fruit? Bananas? Oranges? Pineapple?

are there coffee points?

My name is Wayne and I approve this message.
Avi – try pickles and twinkies (separately). For the pickles, make breading that includes corn flakes.
Everyone else – remember that you’re not just voting for your favorite of the ones I created, you’re just voting for any picture you like. If you like all of mine, or want your shot at shrimpy hooker goodness, by all means vote for each and every one. Spread the news. Help me… Help you… Help me… Sell my lolsoul.
And for you potential cheaters out there, don’t try to ‘vote down’ the competition. A vote is a vote – doesn’t seem as though they care how many cheeseburgers the picture is rated. If you’re gonna cheat, you need to vote from different computers. And that is how you cheat. I find the more I know about cheating, the better prepare I am avoid cheating. Doesn’t mean I cheat less, but “luck favors the prepared, dahling”

Fryday: Fried macaroni and cheese. Restaurants are starting to serve this, and it is quite possibly the world’s most perfect food.

Fried Wonton or Ravioli!
And I’m too cool for Coke. I drink Pepsi.

Fried mac and cheese is Food of the Gods! Seriously. Its the best thing that TGIFs ever put on their menu.
I’ve heard the best way to do it is freeze the mac and cheese and then use a small ice cream scooper to, well, scoop out a ball of it for deep frying.
Reply
Yes, we have no soda. Just coffee. And water. Does that help?
BTW, how about deep fried pork sliced fairly thin and seasoned with garlic, salt and pepper. Oh, and don’t use pancake batter; try Drake’s or something similar.

You and I are not on speaking terms until you make me a Lego Britt iPhone wallpaper.

If you’d said the gorgeous, funny, irrepressible AnnieB then I might have felt somewhat compensated for tirelessly collecting and sending you those wretched little caps (that I’ve come to cringe at the sight of).

You’re missing out on the deliciousness of the fried pickle. But how about some other vegetables? Zucchini?

Damnit to hell and back! I forgot to say … “(who also gives the best head this side of the Mason-Dixon Line!)

Finally. That incredibly luscious penis I have been waiting for.
Let’s see. You need to fry Slimfast, fiber, your vitamins, etc to make up for what you did last week.

Amanda, you don’t even drink rum and coke?
Laura, hmm. Egg McMuffins. That could be interesting.
Clown, nobody has any creativity!
Jay, you’re a Pepsi man? I’ve lost all respect. And we should totally try deep frying chocolate chip cookies – that’s a good idea, too!
BPR, if there were, you’d be a millionaire in points.
Wayne, by suggesting that everyone focus on voting on one of yours, I think you have a higher chance of winning. And it does count the rank of the vote, too.
Kirsten, that sounds horrible!
Peggy, you mean Coke’s too cool for you.
BE Earl, that just does not sound appetizing to me.
Aunt Robin, how do you live without soda? And that pork sounds tasty even if it wasn’t fried.
Britt, you’re such a taskmaster!
HG, I’ve had the deep fried cheesecake bites at Longhorn’s and didn’t think they were that great.
AnnieB, I have edited it and it is now correct. And thank you greatly for all of the effort you’ve put in.
Robin, ew. Really?
Poppy, funny girl.
Em, zucchini might be a good idea. Pickles are just nasty.
AnnieB, I’d have to have a full contest to judge to see if you win that accolade first.
Absurdist, I’ll just throw the whole Flintstones bottle in the frier.

I think any pre-packaged cookie, or dessert item is a good idea. What about fruit roll-ups or fruit snacks? Or hotdogs, or pizza rolls?
I do not have an Iphone. I hate who they are partnered with. I do love my Mac though!

So that’s why I have a bunch of random caps and scraps of cardboard in my drawer… forgot all about it. I’ll email you.

OK I am not a food cookin kind of guy. My level expertise is more on the other side of the cooking counter. However, I have seen fried ice cream on a menu and wondered “How in the hell does THAT work?!”

You could do some tempura. Or how about taking something that’s supposed to be healthy and frying that fucker? Like a granola bar or a bran muffin?
Also, I highly recommend you try making some corn fritters. Those things are kick ass. (Paula Dean has a pretty awesome recipe.)

We have been hooked on Diet Dr. Pepper for a while which is why I haven’t sent you more. Sorry!!!!
Also – what about deep fried ice cream like they do at the Mexican restaurants?

@Amy – Dr Pepper is a Coke product, so I’m wondering why they don’t follow the same coke rewards.
However, for the rest of you – All of the following products are Coke products and many packages have the MyCokeRewards on them:
Minute Maid (juices, too)
Dasani Water
Sprite
PowerAde
Vault
Fanta
Nestea
Barq’s Root Beer
Pibb Xtra
Fresca
So collect up those points and send them to the hairest gorilla you know in Florida.
Or, send them to me and I’ll send them to the gorilla if you don’t like direct contact with said gorilla.

I recommend frying some sushi – put some cheese on it before you batter and fry it. See if you can fry some sea salt. Or inject jalapeno peppers with ranch dressing before breading and frying.

I give my Diet Coke points to Sheila. She asked first.

Liquid, I liked them when they were first out and were clever and not trite.

Gwen, corn fritters might be good.
Amy, Dr. Pepper should have the Rewards Points too!
Wayne, thanks for the extra info.
Jer, we did mushrooms, but I’m not a fungus fan.
Sybil, don’t tell me you like Pepsi better?
Amanda, ok, that will work.
Grant, deep fried sushi could be interesting. Sea salt, though?
Trish, so first it’s NASCAR, and now this betrayal. *sniff*
AnnieB, next Saturday. My house. Bring kneepads.

Heather, we should do a club sandwich – make a Monte Cristo. And thanks in advance for the Coke Rewards!

This is the current contest that allows you to win Amazon songs, right? I’m going to try it out, but if the system is too ridiculous to maintain (as many of these rewards ones are; why can’t they all be as simple as the old free iTunes song promotions?), I’ll send you my codes. Deal?
Wait, that’s Pepsi, isn’t it? Okay, if I get Pepsi stuff for Amazon, I’m keeping them, but I’ll forward the Coke ones on to you. I never use those.

I am surprised you don’t have onion rings on your list. Or fried potatoes. Have you tried fried bananas? Or fried green tomatoes? Or fried okra (I didn’t like it, but you might.)
