The main thing you have to watch out for though is that they have small hands and smell like cabbage.

that is so rude, although some aren't that fresh but would you be if you were in the hot sun for hours on end working just to make a buck. you should see all the work that they do just to provide entertainment for some off the wall town that nothing happens in.

I think this is fantastic. WingNuts, it isn't stealing from Carnies, it's playing with the same rules the Carnies are using to cheat you out of your money.

Is the oven pre-heated? I tried to make them and they didn't pop like they should. I ended up deep frying them. Tasted good, but I'd rather bake them. Thanks! Awesome video!
