With vanilla ice cream? I’m game as long as they don’t use the fish fryolator. When I worked the line we dedicated a fryolator for fish and one for fries. Do they dedicate on for oreos? OK then.

Is deep fried owned by oreos? If not, then no apostrophe.

I thought I left State Fair food behind when I left PA. Here’s looking forward to corn nuggets, fried pickles and funnel cakes being readily available.

you’ll find all that at the Big E in West Springfield in September!

When I spotted the sign I thought I had discovered a new underutilized species but now I see that Oreo’s marketing people have been out there all along

What does it say about me that I am more disturbed by the apostrophe?

LOL Another Dawn–I married into a family of editors/proof readers/writers including father-in-law, husband, and now daughter. When we go out to dinner, oftentimes the first thing they do is read the menu to find the typos and poor grammar.

It seems to indicate that boiling in oil is OK with you as far as the Oreo’s fate is concerned. Prompts me to speculate that you might be fond of corn dogs and hush puppies as well.

This is a good start, and thank you all for your comments. In another day or so the whereabouts of this sign will be revealed with a photo of the site. It’s comforting that the grammar issue has been brought into focus. Let the captioning continue.

How disgusting. I’m glad it was way south of the bridge. I couldn’t imagine that on Cape Ann.

Not only is the punctuation wrong……. the whole concept is just outright wrong!
As a caption — How about: “Cholestoreos to go. Hell no!”

ECONOMIC IMPACT STATEMENT
This product has potential benefits for Cape Ann and it is not helpful to describe it as “ICKY” or “disgusting.” A couple applications that come to mind:
Sooner or later the red tide will return and clams will be unavailable. With a backup stash of Oreos Lobsta Land, Farnums, et al. would be in business as usual.
Picture a bag containing forty four fish sticks and eleven delicious battered Oreos. Such a product would fly off the shelves.

Thanks to all for your comments. My personal favorite was Everett Harlow’s “Because they don’t make Twinkies anymore” The sign is in Chincoteague, VA — perhaps transplanted there from a more southerly place.
