National Fritter Day

A fritter is any type of food that is first coated in batter then deep fried. MMMMmmm, my goodness, a whole day dedicated to the long lost cousin of the croquette and doughnut. My personal favorites are the sweet potato, banana, and okra fritters but any kind of food could be coated, fried, and fritter-fied (yes, I just made that word up). Never tried a fritter? Don’t fret because there is a smorgasbord of fritter recipes online!

But don’t eat fried food too much; you might clog your arteries or grow insane amounts of blubber around your body or something!
