Hasta La Gadget!

Mountain Dew and Cheetos. You know them. You love them. You have both all over your mouse and keyboard. Well, now you can get these two gamer foods together at last. These Mountain Dew flavored Cheetos are from Japan. Naturally.

You can get them for $3.50 a cup here. Don’t worry, they’re “Made in cooperation with Pepsi, to ensure an authentic taste experience.” Of course it doesn’t hurt that Frito-Lay is owned by PepsiCo. See, when you have to say that, it makes me wonder just what you are really putting in it. Probably some gamer steroids for longer play.

If you love these two foods, go try this perfect gamer food union and see if it ups your game any. If nothing else, at least you can get both of these important food groups from a single source.

Raising a kid is a huge responsibility (and from what I’ve seen my sister go through so far, it’s also the cause of many pains and frustrations.) But the fun thing about babies is that you can dress them up in whatever clothes you want, and they don’t have any say because, well, they don’t really care.

This isn’t exactly an article of clothing. It’s actually a swaddle blanket and it’s designed to turn your baby into a burriTOT! (Sorry, couldn’t resist!) The blanket itself looks like a gigantic tortilla, and your baby is the filling.

Don’t be surprised when people’s heads turn your way when your baby’s wrapped in this and you happen to be out and about, because it’ll probably look like you’re embracing a gigantic burrito.

The Tortilla Baby Swaddle Blanket is available online for $48(USD). Sour cream and guacamole not included.

I like burritos and I like cake, but I’m not sure that these two delicious foods were ever intended to meet. But leave it to some crafty pastry chef to defy logic and make one anyhow.

Yep, that’s not the world’s largest burrito – it’s a cake. It was made by Elizabeth Marek at Oregon’s Artisan Cake Company, and it looks good enough to eat – for lunch. The cake itself is chocolate with peanut butter mousse, but you’d never know it from the outside. The tortilla is made from fondant icing, and scorched with a blowtorch, and the guac and sour cream are made from buttercream. I have to assume the other fillings are all made of sugar, and not actual rice, beans, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce, and olives.

If you decide to order one just like it, be sure to ask them to make some “salsa” for dipping it into. I’m thinking some mashed up strawberries and kiwis might do the trick.

How does one go about with making the perfect peanut butter and jelly sandwich? What about the perfect sundae or a banana split? These are presumably some of the most commonly consumed snacks and treats in the country, so most people really don’t need any directions on how to make them.

In case you find someone who doesn’t though, then you absolutely have to get them a set or two of these Food Blueprint Placemats. They keep the table clean and provide detailed diagrams and various views of these foods that will make putting them together a breeze.

They’re  sold in sets of four and are priced at $20(USD) by Awkward Engineer.

That’s no moon, that’s a cheese ball! It is almost operational and when it goes online, it will be the ultimate power in the universe. This awesome cheese Death Star was made by Jennifer Landa who has her sights set on Alderaan and isn’t afraid to fire.

The edible Death Star was made with cream cheese, bacon bits, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped cilantro, garlic, brown cumin, cayenne pepper, lime juice, Worcestershire sauce and a jalapeño. She mixed it all together, shaped the mixture into a ball, then refrigerated it for an hour. The lines were carved with a knife and then she dug out the concavity for the superlaser with a spoon. Want to make one for yourself? Check out the instructional video below:

When the rebels attack, this large cheese ball is going to blow and become an explosive cheesy poof.
