You know what I hate about eating? The constant conversation on whether this food is good for you or bad for you. It seems to change everyday! New reports say this will cause cancer. Other reports say the same thing can prevent it. Even awful food that contains arsenic and other toxic chemicals can be somehow reasoned to be not as bad for you. This video by BuzzFeed shows you what’s toxic inside the food you eat (birthday cake! chicken!) but how it isn’t all that bad for you either. Let’s just either eat what’s delicious or not eat at all!

Pizza and spaghetti are probably two of the most popular junk food items that people both young and old enjoy. They’re not the healthiest things on the menu, but if you’re just looking for a quick bite to eat, then what’s quicker or easier to pick up than pizza or pasta?
It’s about to get even quicker albeit colder with Canadian convenience store chain Couche-Tard’s new offerings: Pizzaghetti Sloche, aka pizza and spaghetti slushies.
If you barfed a little in your mouth at the thought of that, then you’re not alone. I honestly love pizza and spaghetti – the kind that you chew and swallow, not the kind you slurp – so I’m not sure what Couche-Tard was thinking with their newest slushy treat.
As you can see, each flavor has a different slush serve machine. The pizza sloche is on the left, while the spaghetti sloche is on the right. Taste them separately, mix both together…the choice is yours.
Not everything is as it seems though. Comments left by Redditors who had access to a Pizzaghetti sloche machine claim that the pizza slush tastes like strawberry, while the spaghetti slush tastes like lemon.
Does that bit make you more keen to try it… or did it leave you a bit disappointed?
Rogue Beard Beer didn’t get its name for nothing. It’s an unusual brew that’s made using yeast that has been extracted from the beard of an actual human being. That human being is brew-master John Maier, who sports a notably bushy beard that apparently has a lot of yeast in it.
I’ve tried my fair share of weird food and drinks, but this is one I probably won’t try. Nothing against John and his beard, but let me just say, we don’t know where his beard has been…
Anyway, on a more serious note, this isn’t the first time that a brewery has chosen to use wild yeast for their beer. The flavor is described to be a bit more “interesting” and on the “sour side”, so if that sounds appealing to you, then give the Beard Beer a shot, by all means.
Beard Beer is available online for $6.75(USD) a bottle.
Have you ever heard of poutine? No? Well, it’s a Canadian dish that’s made with french fries which have been topped with brown gravy and cheese curds. Other variations exist, but that’s basically what the dish is.
Doesn’t sound very appetizing, does it? It probably has a certain appeal, though, since has been around since the late 1950s. Now take that dish and imagine it as a drink… then take a sip of Seattle-based Jones Soda’s Poutine Soda and see if it matches your imagination or expectations.
Jones Soda describes the drink as having “a nice balance of rich, savory gravy over a starchy potato base, and accented with those fatty, cheesy notes you expect in a plate of poutine.”
I haven’t tried it myself, but others have, and I’ll leave you to gauge how good or bad it was based on their reactions:
If you’re one of those people who feel as if you’re undeserving of love and/or enjoy torturing yourself for fun, here’s something new to add to your self-mutilation bag o’ tricks: watch a 24/7/365 Cockroach Cam. It’s like watching a bunch of cam girls go about their daily lives only the opposite of that because those cam girls would actually be disgusting cockroaches that hiss and scream and make your stomach churn. It’s the worst thing on the Internet right now. I also can’t stop watching. More »
Zombies are all the rage these days, so it was only a matter of time before us humans would try to get into the flesh-eating action. You know, we always imitate what we see in video games and TV, right? Well at the Body Bakery, you can eat other humans, without actually eating other humans.
Thai artist Kittiwat Unarrom created this series of disturbingly realistic body parts out of bread, decorating them in excruciating detail.
Incredibly, all of the dismembered body parts you see here are completely edible, from the head, to the arms to the torso, right down to the toes.
Lest you think Kittiwat is just jumping on the current zombie trend with his creations, he actually first started making these disgusting delicacies back in 2007.
Zombies crave brains, but we humans crave sugary treats like cakes. For Technabob readers, the geekier the better. This amazingly gory and gross zombie cake was made from Rice Krispie Treats.
The great thing about a zombie cake is that the longer it sits, the more authentic it looks as it rots just like a real zombie. Of course, you wouldn’t want to eat it after that. But even in its pictured state, it looks super yummy.
This zombie was on display for the Portland Women’s Show and was made by the Artisan Cake Company back in October. The detail is amazing and even it has Jell-O brains. There’s always room for Jell-O brains, of course.
When I think of zombies and brains, I remember that hilarious music video that you can watch after you play all the levels of Plants vs. Zombies. You know, the one that goes “There’s a zombie on your lawn…“
This time around, though, you can turn the tables on those zombies and eat their brains instead. Figuratively, that is, because as you all know, zombies don’t exist. At least not yet.
If you fancy having a taste of zombie brains because you’re bored with your current food choices, then turn to KnotTheOrdinary because they won’t disappointed.
They’re currently offering a sweet set of six teeny tiny Zombie Brain chocolate treats filled with your gooey filling of choice (you can choose from three!) for just $10(USD).
Because of recent “sextortion” cases that involved using the ol’ Justin Bieber Ruse (that’s a real thing), the FBI decided that they should put out a few official tips to inform the online collective on how to avoid sexual extortion. More »
The sky’s the limit when it comes to food lately. People are coming up with all sorts of weird concoctions and food creations all the time, but none as decidedly strange as the Rocky Mountain Oyster Stout, which is actually stout that’s made with bull testicles.
Unsurprisingly, this unusual brew got its start as an April Fools prank. This brew is apparently made with “Colorado-grown base malts, roasted barley, seven specialty malts, sea salt, Styrian Goldings Hops and three BPBs.” And by BPBs, they mean ‘Balls-Per-Barrel.’ As for the taste, it’s got hints of “chocolate syrup, Kahlua and espresso, along with a palpable level of alcohol and a savory umami-like note.”
Doesn’t sound very appealing to me, especially the part about what goes into each barrel. However, if you’re up for drinking some bull balls, then you’ll be pleased to know that you can pick up a pack for about $7 a pack on Beerjobber.com.
