Bob Ross Waffle Maker Could Double as Ronald McDonald Waffle Maker

We’ve got Bob Ross POP! Figures, a toaster that will burn the painter’s image onto your bread and now, I present to you the Bob Ross face waffle maker. That’s right, now you can make waffles in the shape of Bob Ross’ head. I think we might be at peak Bob Ross right now. At least I hope so because this is getting ridiculous.

This electric waffle maker will cost you $40. It makes waffles that look a bit like the famous painter if he was made of flour and sugar. I gotta say, the waffles it produces look more like an angry clown to me. Like Ronald McDonald being tortured. So I’m calling any meal you make with this thing an unhappy meal.

How could you eat this? I would be terrified with every bite. It just looks like it is in complete agony. Like you have just cooked his very soul and trapped it in a waffle after he saw a bunch of happy little trees get cut down. I don’t want to look at that face as I eat. As it is, I’m off waffles for a while after seeing this thing. I just can’t.

I’m sorry Bob. You deserve so much better.
