| Lo Fun Fact #1 |
| "Lolita Files" is my real name. It is not a pen name, as incredible as that may seem. There are plenty of Files family members and people who have known me for years capable of validating this. As for the "Lolita" part, my mother named me after the movie based on Nabokov's book, although she saw or read neither. To this day, she has no idea what a "Lolita" is. |
| Lo Fun Fact #2 |
| I love fried chicken and fabulous shoes. If you ever want to get on my good side, send Popeye's or Mr. Chicken (my favorite spot in Cleveland) and a pair of
Christian Louboutins. |
| Lo Fun Fact #3 |
| Never show up unannounced or without a Pepsi (preferably Pepsi Jazz Caramel Cream). Better yet, how about not show up at all? |
| Lo Fun Fact #4 |
| I hate the telephone. Don't get mad if I don't call you. I don't call anyone. Don't call me asking why I don't call. Just don't call, okay? |
| Lo Fun Fact #5 |
| I love the internet!!! I love communicating through the internet!!! You can e-mail me and odds are I'll e-mail you right back (if I'm not in the middle of a major project). Makes up for my hangup about the phone, doesn't it? See, I'm not so bad after all!!! |
| Lo Fun Fact #6 |
| I can't stand IMing. Please don't IM me. You will get the cold shoulder. I don't like giving people the cold shoulder, so please don't put me in that position. |
| Lo Fun Fact #7 |
I have four five six wonderful, slap-happy dogs, a bird (some kind of dove/pigeon mix), and a cat, all of whom I love to pieces. If you meet me and ask me about my dogs, bird, and cat, we'll be instant friends. If you meet me and ask me why the f*ck I have four five six dogs, a bird, and a cat, see the above fun fact for how I will respond. |

| I Say They Come Out With Pepsi-Fried Chicken. |
| Monday, October 30, 2006 |
Pepsi better get on the stick if it plans to keep up, because there's a new sheriff in town treat at the fair---it's got Coke in it, and it's fried---and if this thing doesn't give you a stroke and diabetes as you're eating it, I don't know what will.
Abel Gonzales, 36, a computer analyst from Dallas, tried about 15 different varieties before coming up with his perfect recipe -- a batter mix made with Coca-Cola syrup, a drizzle of strawberry syrup, and some strawberries.
Balls of the batter are then deep-fried, ending up like ping-pong ball sized doughnuts which are then served in a cup, topped with Coca-Cola syrup, whipped cream, cinnamon sugar and a cherry on the top.
"It tastes great," said Sue Gooding, a spokeswoman for the State Fair of Texas where Gonzales' fried Coke made its debut this fall. "It was a huge success." Fried Coke. Yum-o. Should go great with Pepsi-flavored fried chicken on a stick.
Reuters: Because we don't already have enough fried foods.. |

It is perhaps tasty but have we become that bored with the traditional artery clogging treats that we have to come up with new ones. No wonder half of us are overweight. Every time a friend viisits from another country and we go out to eat they always marvel at how large the servings are -- I think they're normal. Isn't that interesting.

Every year around the holidays my mother-in-law makes "Coca Cola Salad" It's a gelatin like dessert that everyone seems to want every holiday. I never tried it because it has pecans in it, and I don't really like those, but everyone always asks if she is going to make it. I guess I'll have to try it this year.
Anyway, I'm sure there are a lot of other interesting Coca Cola recipes out there that people have tried. For the most part I like my Coke out the bottle. I'm a huge consumer of the product, probably against my body's better wishes, but I'm in no rush to try "Fried Coke".

Coca Cola paid for my college (Daddy retired from the bottling company) but I prefer a ice cold glass of Pepsi. As a matter of fact I got one sitting on my desk, but I cant drink it. Oh please make the headaches go away!!!!
-
I can just feel my arteries clogging at the sight of this piture.
-
I think people who eat these by the cup should probably go ahead and saw their own feet off, beating diabetes to the effort.
-
Yeah no need to waste time
-
I think they look delicious. Then again, my family calls me 'the donut queen.'

hmmm, pepsi-fried chicken????
hey lo, i'm working on it. we gots plenty of pepsi to experiment with!
hi sheletha!
(running outta the room, heading to the lab!!!!) *door close!*
-
*door open!* (running back in from the lab!!!!)
WE DID IT!!!
WE DID IT!!!
....well, sorta.
damn the headache of rollin' them up in dough and frying them, we've created!!!
*toot horn!*...PEPSI SYRUP!!!!
yes, yes, y'all....the taste for all generations!!!!! but not like the syrup you mix with CO2 & carbonated water to get that fountain soda taste, but a light, semi-sweet, lo-cal syrup, that you can pour on anything. think of it like ketchup. pour it on pancakes! BAMM!!!
...on french toast! BAMM!!!
...any kinda of bakery product to give it that soda pop kick!!!
if y'all notice anything about pepsi, we follow coke's lead in everything, from sodas to marketing. but this time, we're takin' the lead!!!!!!
if you get the chance, test drive sierra mist with a splash of cranberry...not bad! and we're one up on coke/sprite with this one (as far as i know!)
