Everything tastes better with Bacon!  Even baby turtles.  Don’t worry animal lovers.  No turtles were harmed in the making of these Baby Bacon Cheese Turtleburgers.

Just some cow and pig and whatever comes in hot dogs.  Well, maybe some turtles were harmed.  Who knows what’s in those hot dogs….

Sushi is a fun and hip food for us.

But we didn’t know there was so much to the Japanese tradition of eating sushi. In fact, we might need to study this video a couple of more times before we head out to Wasabi this week.

Bundled with a small budget and an idea of “drunken revolutionaries,” we are treated to the greatest Tequila drinking robot we have ever seen.

This commercial we made for a Birmingham, Alabama, Taqueria. As the creators stated: “They asked for ‘drunken revolutionaries’, so we thought Tequilabot filled that request.”

Tequilabot is there to take tequila shots for war buddies that die.  He’ll also eat your garlic fries.

Mmmmmm…. who doesn’t love a great meal?

The Food Network hosts have prided themselves on bring you the best dishes from across the world. Sometimes, they enjoy them a little too much and it’s easy to mistake their delight for a similar expression found in the bedroom.

Hence, the foodgasm.

Here are the Top 10 Biggest Food Network Foodgasms Of 2009. Thankfully there are no pictures with Mario Batali.

Here is a segment from the popular series “Buy Me That” where we meet a “makeup artist for food,” who surprises us all with this behind-the-scenes look at how burgers (and fries) are made to look their best for television. This clip is a big outdated but you get the idea on why the ads look soooooooo much better than anything you buy at the restaurant. Today, restaurants actually use 3D animation and graphics to depict their food in commercials to give it the best look.

Now if they put that much effort into what they serve we might actually go there….

Taters! Wal-Mart’s new generic labels bring back great memories of growing up with the old fashioned black-and-and white labels that skimped on the details. If it was toilet paper it was simply labeled as so.

No marketing. No colors. Nuthin.

Wal-Mart is bringing back that love with their house brands and we love this little package of “taters”

Sweet and to the point.

The near-genius BLT Kama Sutra, we think, would have made George Costanza proud.

The merging of food and sex is a delicate task that is not always pulled off correctly. Many have tried and a few have succeeded. But whoever came up with this edible version of the Kama Sutra, however, took the game up a notch. Now we have a first look at what really happens between the bread.

You may never look at a BLT sandwich the same again….

Who likes chocolate? And who likes bacon?

Some great entrepreneur saved us the time of eating those two great foods separately. Grab hold to your Dockers because this place serves Chocolate Covered Bacon! Just fantastic.

Mallie’s Sports Grill and Bar in Southgate, Michigan, just made the list of places to visit before we die. The chaps at Mallie’s decided to build the world’s biggest hamburger, a goal we support.

The 185lb burger costs about $500 and the bun itself took 8 hours to cook. The burger is then baked for 15 hours before it is topped with cheese, lettuce and tomato and wheeled out into the restaurant on a trolley.

*sniff* ….it’s so beautiful….

I scream, You scream, Gay Dudes scream for Ice Cream!

Popular Ben and Jerry have renamed their “Chubby Hubby” ice cream in honor of their home state of Vermont legalizing homosexual marriage. The new name, “Hubby Hubby,” will not actually appear in store since it takes over a year to repackage a product and get it on shelves.

“The legalization of marriage for gay and lesbian couples in Vermont is certainly a step in the right direction, and something worth celebrating with peace, love – and plenty of ice cream,” Ben & Jerry’s CEO Walt Freese said in announcing the sugary switch.

The move is mostly symbolic, as Burlington-based Ben & Jerry’s isn’t changing labels on “Chubby Hubby” pints sold in stores.

Spokesman Sean Greenwood said revising product labels takes 18 months, although he said Ben & Jerry’s hasn’t ruled out retailing “Hubby Hubby” in the future.
