Is this something any of you would like? If it is, maybe we (or I, sure I'll do it) could give the Villages Entertainment a head's up. Maybe they could reach out to local food truck vendors and see if any of them offer fried dough (or know a vendor that does - most of them know each other).

I liked all three versions that I've had when I lived up north: fried dough pizza, with sauce and parmesan cheese...cinnamon-sugar fried dough...and butter and powdered sugar fried dough.

Really bad for that girlish figure but it's such a great treat once in awhile!
I like fresh-fried doughnuts. That’s fried dough. In Brussels, street venders use yeast donut dough to make waffles that are fried. They are called Gaufres. It’s the national dish. Delicious!

There is also “Indian fry bread,” which is sort of like a cross between a tortilla made from bread dough and a pizza crust. I bought one alongside a road near the Grand Canyon from some Navajos who fried it on the spot. It was really greasy and not delicious at all. The first two might be a nice product food truck product. The last one, perhaps not.
