Scots chippy creates deep fried snack with Easter twist and fans are divided
A SCOTTISH chip shop has divided opinion after starting the countdown to Easter in a controversial way.
Aldo’s Fish & Chips, in Ayr, shared their latest creation on social media – and locals have been left divided.
To celebrate Easter in style, the fast food joint has deep fried a Creme Egg.
The posted snaps of the delicacy with the caption: “It’s back, deep fried Creme Egg! It’s only 81 days till Easter.”
It’s not the first time the chippy has done this with the chocolate treat – the did the same thing last year.
But locals have been left split over how they feel about the creation.
One person said: “I don’t know if this is really wrong. But I really want to try it”.
Another added: “Kinda intrigued, kinda grossed out”.
Someone else posted: “doesn’t sound great but I’m also kinda curious about it”.
While a fourth chimed in: “oh yum!”
However others weren’t keen on the idea.
One user wrote: “it would scald the inside of your mouth surely”.
A second agreed: “ew not deep fried”.
A third added: “Oh no, this is wrong”.
While another commented: “No wonder there are so many heart attacks!”
Deep fried food are no stranger to people in Scotland – as one social media sensation showed on Come Dine With Me.
Darren Dowling, also known as Dazza online, stunned fellow contestants when he cooked a deep fried Scottish three-course meal on the Channel 4 show.
The foodie started out with a deep-fried chicken and caviar, served up a greasy lasagne for his main course, and finished off with an iconic deep-fried chocolate bar.
Dazza said he was unsure whether Channel 4 would allow him to serve up his deep-fried cuisine – and added: “I can’t believe I got away with it.”
