The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
If you’re looking for pasta that’s capable of destroying other puny pastas, Death Star Raviolis are here.
Created by Austin-based, Cane Rosso, the space station pasta is made with squid ink to produce the dark color. However, rather than filled with Stormtroopers, these Death Stars have herbed goat and ricotta cheese inside. They’re then topped with cherry tomatoes and a lemon butter sauce.
You may fire your tastebuds when ready.
Forty years ago today, a movie was released that would change cinema and pop culture forever. It was also around this time that it was still acceptable to suspend stuff inside Jell-O.
So, the Star Wars Battle of Yavin in Gelatin makes perfect sense. Brought to us by Jenn Fujikawa of Just Jenn Recipes, the battle scene is made possible with gelatin, the proper molds, and a bundt cake pan. The best part, is that the X-wings, Tie Fighters and Death Star are all made from gelatin too.
Happy Birthday, Star Wars.

This Valentine’s Day… Are you going to do the same old box of chocolates and store-bought cards? Or, would you rather harness the ultimate power in the love galaxy, and create the Death Star Valentine’s Pie?
Brought to us by Jessica (@ThePieous) from Pies Are Awesome, the yummy space station is made possible with some creative dough-work and cherry filling. Or, you could pretend it’s filled with the innards of dead Stormtroopers, you know, to spice things up a bit.

Look for an opening in its frosting port, and may the fork be with you.

The rebellion is toast. The Death Star Toaster is now fully-operational, and rouge toast doesn’t stand a chance.
The best part, is that the empire-approved toaster will brand a Star Wars logo on each slice of bread. The worst part, is that a few rogues may have already found a weakness in your toaster’s thermal vent.
