    Cut it into pieces, put them in your mouth, chew and then swallow.

    It's one day in the year, enjoy it.

    It won't soak up as much oil as you think. Enjoy it.

    Take all the nice crispy skin and send it to me, then you can eat whatever you want...It doesn't have the breading like a lot of fried stuff, so there isn't as much for the oil to stick with. Eat a small portion and enjoy. It isn't like fried turkeys are available to you all year, are they?

    I've had deep fried turkey... it's not like it's covered in batter then fried. eat some breast meat and you'll be fine

    Why the hell isn't it covered in batter first?! It really should be.

    Fried is fine. BREADED and fried isn't- but if my dad went to the trouble of breading and deep-frying a turkey, you bet your bippy I'd still eat it. Eat the damn turkey. Jeebus Crispy people. This is unbelievable. the level of obsession is sad. the MOST a person could gain on Thanksgiving would be one pound- maybe two if you take down 7,000 cals. Everything else is water weight that will disappear within a week. What is wrong with everyone?!

    Would the batter be able to survive and hour + in the oil?

    I would say don't eat it. There's generally plenty of other things to eat. But, I dunno, I'm a vegetarian, so I suppose I'm biased. It's okay to take a day off to enjoy yourself, though.

    Worst thing you can do.

    Exercise increases appetite.

    I couldn't agree more, but it's not....

    however, the best part about when my friend deep fries a turkey is popping the bacon wrapped jalepeno poppers in the hot turkey oil right after. NOM!

    OMG...So drooling right now.

    Thanks for the advise & the laughs...some of you have an excellent sense of humor. I do like deep fried Turkey and I will indulge!!
    Happy Thanksgiving to all those that celebrate the holiday. I am doing a Turkey Trot in the morning prior to dinner with the family so that will wear off some of those calories from the Pumpkin Pie I was told I can have as well....LOL :happy:
