Craving: Fried Zucchini

As a youngster, I remember always pulling into the Carl’s Jr. drive-thru, getting my order placed, and then my dad would order his own thing…mainly consisting of a diet-Sprite/7up and an order of Fried Zucchini. I always wondered what the hooplah was all about. At the time, I figured Fried Zucchini was an elitist menu item that old folks would order because for some strange reason it meant they weren’t eating the same “fast food” they were spilling into their children. Intricacies aside, I’m only slightly less naive than I was years back, and now Fried Zucchini, regardless of the restaurant, is one of my favorite appetizers! (Thx HenryChan)
