Anything with fried dough and something on it is the best!! Yum!

I love the apple topping - I think there must be about 10,000 calories in one of those things - but I'll make the sacrifice and walk a little harder on the treadmill the next day.

I thought they were fat free!?! Well, that's what I tell myself anyway!

That's it! They have alot of calories but absolutely NONE of them are from fat.

it is great stuff. although over here in new zealand we call it candy floss.

I had to remember when at WDW to ask for the cotton candy when I wanted some to eat while watching the fire works over the castle.

You all are making me hungry.

Cotton Candy is yummy! Although I have to admit that I don't like it near as much as I did as a kid. Way too sugary for me now, can only eat a little, but still yummy!

Cotton candy is the equivalent of licking the inside of a sugar bowl.

And what would be wrong with that?

I like my sugar pretty undiluted by additives.

Now I feel like I'm at a carnival! I'll take a funnel cake and some cotton candy, please. And maybe a bag of popcorn, too.

I think you have that backwards, it should be I'll have a cotton candy and a funnel cake. And maybe a bag of popcorn with some cotton candy please.

Either way, it's far too much junk food...I feel so self indulgent.

It melts in your mouth, and your hand!

Does anyone know Morse code? Check out that cat with the blinking neck. I think it says, V-O-T-E F-O-R C-O-T-T-O-N C-A-N-D-Y, yup that's what it says. Come on everyone, do what the cat says!

Yucky...not a fan of cotton candy. I like my junk food chewier, like caramel coated stuff or something with nuts. Funnel cakes are yummy as well..one or two bites of CC is fun, but that's all I can do.

Sorry, Jeff! Go funnel cakes!

I like both CC and funnel cakes mmmmmmmmm, now I'm hungry!

My kids love CC (it bugs me how sticky my youngest gets with it though LOL) and I love funnel cakes.
Mmmmmm...... so deliciously fattening. LOL

I love a little bit of cotton candy every now and then.

Just don't give me the fruit flavored stuff!

I know the pink CC I used to get did not taste like a fruit - did it?

My DD brought some home from a D-backs game about a week ago - grape and raspberry flavored - YUCK!

When my niece was a little one, she loved cotton candy, til one day she looked at it and turned pale, and started crying. Seems her teddy bear had gotten torn a few days before, and now when she looked at cotton candy, all she could see was................

"Teddy Bear Stuffin's"

She wouldn't eat it for AGES!!! Now, I can't think of anything else when I first get it......then its GONE!!!!!!

I MUST agree here! Sticky and tastes bad!
