Bacon. From a toaster. Hey, it was the ’60s, man. Reddi-Bacon was brought to us by the makers of Reddi-Whip — who promised bacon, while saving you from “soiling a frying pan or the oven.”
Unfortunately, and somewhat unsurprisingly, Reddi-Bacon would leak fat from its foil cooking packet, and soil your toaster instead. Toaster bacon was practically dead on arrival, and pulled from test markets before being unleashed on the bell-bottom-wearing public. Dig it.

Oreo, in support of gay pride, recently posted a rainbow version of their cookie on Facebook. It unsurprisingly polarized the cookie-eating community, while also creating demand for a six-layer Oreo. It was only a matter of time until the Photoshop version just wouldn’t do — so Instructables member Carleyy broke out the food coloring and dental floss, and made it happen.
Although Nabisco has not yet mentioned plans to make a Rainbow Oreo available to the masses — this one-off is a step in the right direction. Now we wait.

As we await confirmation on exactly what’s going on here, we’ll tell you what we know so far. KFC Philippines has unveiled something called the Cheese Top Burger. And, besides the uninspired name, someone over at KFC apparently couldn’t be bothered to open the bun before melting the cheese.
OK, this just in… The cheese is melted on top of the burger on purpose. And, the “burger” is actually a chicken patty with garlic Parmesan dressing — again, cheese on the outside.
I’m glad we cleared this up, because KFC was looking really silly there for a second.
German automaker Volkswagen is apparently also in the sausage and condiment business. While Jettas and GTIs continue to roll down the assembly line at their main plant in Wolfsburg, Germany — the makers of the “people’s car” are also producing and packaging their very own currywurst and ketchup.
Although not available for the worldwide masses, the currywurst and ketchup are available at most German VW factories, and visitors to Autostadt.

When the aromas from the mall food court are allowed to get the better of us, stuff like The Cinnaburger happens. Created by Nick of DudeFoods — what you’re seeing above is a half-pound burger, with a Cinnabon for a bun. Oh, and there’s bacon.
Enjoy responsibly — that is to say, not at all.
