Seriously Bad Idea-Hostess Glo-Balls

You know, I really had a bunch to say about this product. I droned on and on for several paragraphs about the product title, the color, and oh so much more. But then it dawned on me that a picture really is worth a thousand words… Via Great White Snark: Link

Cup your cake

Just today I was asking myself what would make this world a better place? I know I probably should have answered World Peace, but I just kept thinking about food (I probably should have eaten before asking this very important question). Which led me on to the most important question in the world: “What are [...]

Gamer Grub: First choice or last resort?

If the world didn’t end when Cheeseburger in a Can showed up on the market, then it certainly won’t end now. This is a “food” item that is catering to a target market that I just can’t seem to figure out. Who exactly are they trying to sell this stuff to? Is it lazy gamers [...]

One large kitty

Considering how big Hello Kitty is all over the world, a normal sized Pez Dispenser just wouldn’t do. It had to be big – really big. As a matter of fact it had to be XXL. Pez says the new XXL Hello Kitty Pez dispenser has just arrived. I couldn’t find it a direct link [...]

Forceful candy

Who can resist candy like this? I just love these! They are 8.5″ of sugary goodness that you can use to have lightsaber duels. These are definitely something that I need to get. They come 12 to a box – I think that means that they could at least last for six duels. I wonder [...]

Scouting for blizzards

Dairy Queen has just introduced a new Blizzard. They call it the “Girl Scouts Thin Mint Cookie Blizzard Treat” (I left out all the trademark and registered symbols in the name – it was already too much to type). I saw a commercial for it last night on TV (even though there isn’t a Dairy [...]

Indoor marshmallow toaster

We all have our own guilty pleasures in life. Some people have chocolate; others watch bad movies; I have marshmallows (and yes I love bad movies – but who said I couldn’t have more than one guilty pleasure?)! My love affair with the sugary fluff is long-standing and even more intense when that fluff is [...]

Peeping Contest Winners

Since I mentioned the contests on a previous post, it would be completely remiss of me to not mention the winners. So here they are: Pioneer Press: 1st Place – Honoring the Peep in All Things, Namaste. By Joel Homme, age 47, Saint Paul. See all entries here. Washington Post: 1st Place – The Tomb [...]

R2D2 takes the cake

Now this is a CAKE! I have seen all sorts of cakes before, but this one takes the uhhhh cake (sorry about that – couldn’t think of anything else to say about it). This is definitely the best groom’s cake I have seen to date (not that I see a lot of groom’s cakes – [...]

Fry twice, toast later

Okay – maybe it’s too late at night for me to be blogging, but I was laughing so hard at this that I was crying (and partly because she mentioned that she needed a wire rack for this experiment). Some very enterprising food connoisseurs (and yes, I had to look up how to spell that [...]
