Promotional stunts can be an interesting way to spend an afternoon. Especially when they involve fire. And food. Tomorrow, in Los Angeles, El Pollo Loco will combine the two in a big way. Like Guinness World Record big. Well, at least the fire part. Read on for the press release, and yes, I posted this solely because of the promotional graphic above.

Quicker Than Zoku

The popular Zoku Quick Pop Maker has a lot of things going for it, but sometimes freshly-made freezer pops in as little as seven minutes is just not quick enough.
