Breaking news: Hot dogs still cannot fly!

Snip:

How well does it work? Well, no reviews are up yet, but it is less than 10 bucks…

(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.
