The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
George Duran of the Hungry channel is at it again — using a particular food item somewhere it doesn’t belong. Or, does it? Slim Jim Meatballs are on the menu, which sees our host grinding up a few of the snappy spice sticks, mixing them with some standard meatball ingredients, and handing them out to innocent bystanders in NYC. The consensus… Indifference.

Mosaic artist Jason Mecier, best known for his food mosaics of pop culture and mythical figures, has recently thrown his glue gun into the political ring. Created for a promotion for Jack Links, Barack Obameat & Meat Romney [nice!] are made entirely from beef jerky.
Now, we try never to get political here at Foodiggity. But even Romney’s dehydrated meat smile gives me the douche chills. Be sure to check out Mecier’s making-of video below.

Brought to us by mosaic artist Jason Mecier, Beef Jerky Sasquatch was made from 80 bags of Jack Link’s Beef Jerky. It was created to help celebrate National Beef Jerky Day — yes, that’s a thing.

Filed under “What the hell took so long?” we finally get to enjoy our Bloody Mary as it should have always been — drank through beef. Benny’s Bloody Mary Beef Straws answers our prayers, and creates a delivery system of hangover cure like no other.
Sorry celery, you had a good run as the go-to garnish, but you’re just not beefy or jerky enough.

This year, make Valentine’s Day even jerkier, with Brief Jerky. Brought to us by Instructables user Carley Jacobson, the 100% edible undies are made from ground beef with Slim Jim laces. So if you have a food dehydrator, and are into that sort of thing, complete instructions are available.

To help keep our troops awake, and make their day a bit meatier, the US Army will start providing them with caffeinated beef jerky. So, in addition to their daily allowance of protein and jerked meat, the MRE is packed with a coffee cup’s worth of caffeine. It should come in handy when there are no crafty Canadians around.
