I guess that I shouldn't visit some parts of England with a t-shirt with the emblem of a French football club (O.M.! O.M.! O.M.! O.M.!)

saying "in fall" in the UK won't kill you , but you might need to specify what colour grapes you'd like your hospital visitors to bring

colchicum (a pink flower bulb growing in fall in cow pastures) can kill a cow if eaten by them...  
 
let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

Anyone can make their own.
1. Unwrap a Mars bar.
2. Dip it in batter.
3. Fry in loads of oil.
4. Or in lard.
5. Serve.

Deep fried mars bars and other deep fried stuff like that is mostly confined to Scotland. Not the  UK in general. Nowhere here does them anyway.

They're popular here in Australia. Despite the crashes.

I actually do. Tongue I have a painting of them in my room.
 
They are pretty to look at, if, frankly, not really useful. Though they can be dangerous. I don't even know if such things are even popular in either Austrailia or the UK.

"Mars chocolate bars" and "beef" in the same sentence ... something odd about that. Like Rachel's beef-n-onion cake.

on the subject of the deep-fried mars bar - Back in 1996 a friend and I (both of us being sweet-toothed lovers of chocolate and fried food) found a place that did them, and we decided to share one just to try it out.  Despite both of us loving fried food and sweet food, we couldn't even finish this thing, kept passing it back and forth trying to eat it.
That's 1 deep fried mars bar defeating two people who love fried food and mars bars.  Don't try it.
