Breaking news: Hot dogs still cannot fly!

Snip:

A hovering helicopter dropped 955 hot dogs on the city’s aptly named HYPE Athletic Facilities Wednesday morning to mark the 95th anniversary of Detroit’s iconic American Coney Island restaurant.

Yup, they really did that. The above news was from The Detroit News and not, I repeat not, from the Cincinnati Enquirer. As god as my witness, at least they knew that turkey chili cannot fly!

Ugly Pancake Contest

One ugly pancake from N. Shields at Saipancakes.

Now here’s a contest you can sink your teeth into. You have until Saturday, May 19th to enter the Ugly Pancake Contest from N. Shields at Saipancakes. The result must be edible and made of “mostly” pancake batter. The results will be judged by his 4-year-old son, so it’s probably safe to say the uglier the better. (Plus it is called an ugly pancake contest, after all.) Check out some of his decidedly non-ugly pancake variations like the ones below. Pancake art is alive and well.

The Happy Kitchen Candy Hamburger kit is a make-it-yourself treat that even comes complete with a cola just waiting to be fizz.

Mix the dough, cut the french fries, “bake” the buns, shape the hamburgers, mold the cheese and even prepare your own ketchup. To wash it all down, you’ve got a cola to go along with your meal. From start to finish, you’ll have a smile on your face as your prepare you miniature treat!

Carrot Lollipops

Carrot Lollipops

Those terrible hollow chocolate bunnies have got to go.

Luckily, there is a new treat in town. These Carrot Lollipops might not have any actual carrot in them, but hey, the kids won’t mind. Don’t worry, they do manage to get a vegetable in there. Spinach!

Here’s the ingredient list: Organic tapioca syrup, vegan cane sugar, citric acid, natural flavor from oranges and limes, colored with beta carotene, annatto and spinach concentrate.

***Update 10/22/24: Looks like the rabbits got into Williams Sonoma where these were originally found and ate all the carrot lollipops. Not to worry, we can just move on to a different veggiepop! Check out these 8Greens Supergreens Lollipops.
