I've seen the check-ins and heard friends rave about the new hot spot in the neighborhood so, I had to make a trip to Magnolia Sliders and taste for myself. Needless to say, I took a crew of heavies to help me order more than the usual 3 things so that I wouldn't give away my secret fat girl identity. First on the list was, of course, The Slider... a mini-burger topped with grilled onions and Jalapeño Ranch Sauce. $1.50 a piece and just one was enough to start the ball of delicious madness rolling for me. The sauce, itself, was a zesty ranch delight. Next up, FUNNEL CAKE! Yes.... I said funnel cake. This, alone, is worth the trip to 75th. It was topped with banana slices, powdered sugar, whipped cream and chocolate drizzle. The cake stayed crispy on the outside and soft and warm on the inside under all of that sugary craziness. $5.50 each is a steal compared to the rodeo. 3rd course, Jalapeño Poppers. At 4 for $2.50, my taste buds screamed with joy for these cream cheese filled balls of love. Then, came the FRIED........ TWINKIES!!! $2.00 is a small price to pay for the greatest invention ever made. Just one made me wish the car would never start. I almost slashed the tires, myself, just so we could stay for another hour. Another beautiful masterpiece were the Loaded Ribbon Fries. These thinly cut and fried potato slices were piled into a mountain pointing straight to Heaven and smothered with slightly spicy nacho cheese and sprinkled with bacon bits. I don't know about you but I've been to the mountain top and I cringed at the thought of returning from it. $3.50 was the toll for that climb. And for desert.... the elusive FRIED OREOS with Ice Cream. This magical sinning moment consisted of four battered and fried Oreo Cookies surrounding a scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream. I took my time on these because scooping ice cream on top of the Oreo and taking a small bite seemed like murder. How could I? I just couldn't back down. Now I know how the bad vampires felt on Twilight... and I'd do it all over again and live a lifetime in Hell for it. $3.25 bought my ticket to eternal damnation. Ah well... what could I do? I'm only human.
