Twinkie Me, Bitch!: Breaking Bad Meets Vintage Twinkies Comics

October 1, 2013 by Chris Durso

twinkies-breaking-bad

Breaking Bad is no longer, and Twinkies are sort of in limbo. So, a big thanks to artist Brendan Tobin for resurrecting the two, with Twinkie Me, Bitch!.

The short story, inspired by vintage Hostess comic book ads, combines the recently retired TV show and the imperishable yellow sponge cake into a brilliant spoof.

Coincidentally, there’s about the same amount of lethal chemicals in Twinkies as there are in meth — so, the ending is fully plausible. Well done, sir.

Even Marvel Superheroes Have A Cookbook

March 26, 2013 by Chris Durso

Stan-Lee-Presents-The-Mighty-Marvel-Superheroes-Cookbook

At the time of this writing, there are no fewer than 2,332 superhero movies currently in production. So, it only makes sense that some of our superhero friends would have their own cookbook. Behold, The Mighty Marvel Superheroes’ Cookbook.

The cookbook contains a few meals perfect for helping to fuel the body for some web-slinging and shield-throwing — such as Spider-Man’s amazing “Chocolate Web Pancakes” and The Hulk’s “Hulkburgers.” Because if anyone knows how to compose the perfect meal, it’s going to be a human spider and a giant green rage monster. Check out the vintage cookbook here.

The First McDonald’s Big Mac Ad

February 19, 2013 by Chris Durso

introducing-the-big-mac-in-1969

The year was 1969, a time of free love and “special sauce” naivete. And then, along came the McDonald’s Big Mac. Seen here in its first official print advertisement, McDonald’s signature sandwich was originally touted as, “A meal disguised as a sandwich,” inadvertently becoming a ground-breaker for future fast food abominations and other extreme food. In a way it also paved the way for food humor sites that cover such drivel. Thanks, Big Mac!!

Atari 2600 Cake

January 2, 2013 by Chris Durso

atari-cake

The Atari 2600 Cake was created by New Jersey-based Pink Cake Box for a fortieth birthday party. The red velvet cake was complete with game console, two joysticks, and Pac-Man and Vanguard cassettes.

And, if you’re too young to know what a joystick is, then I won’t bother explaining how kids were once entertained by video games that required the use of one button. Or, how totally awesome Pitfall was. Awesome cake though.

Reddi-Bacon, Real Bacon That Cooks In Your Toaster

June 28, 2012 by Chris Durso

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.
