The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
You won’t need a beach in Flavortown to wear the Guy Fieri Swimsuit. While giant faces printed on swimsuits is all the rage, it was inevitable that the Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives host would be adorning torsos this summer.
Brought to us by Beloved, the swimsuits are $50, which includes a Guy on the back. Yes, there’s a Guy on the back too… Booyah!
Whether Guy Fieri genuinely loves his job, or is just eating his feelings — watching him consume copious amounts of food set to Johnny Cash’s “Hurt” works surprisingly well.
The video is brought to us by Mayor Wertz. Stick with it until the mid-song build-up… Totally worth it.

If you’ve ever watched Diners, Drive-ins and Dives, or one of Guy Fieri’s other very loud TV shows, and thought, “That guy looks just like a creepy Renaissance cherub,” you’re not alone.
Buzzfeed has, and recently had the wherewithal to insert Guy into several Renaissance paintings. As if the infants depicted in this art period couldn’t get any more frightening, the frost-headed Fieri actually fits in rather seamlessly.
Apologies in advance for the nightmares tonight…

Remember, kids… If you happen to be opening a restaurant in one of the most heavily touristed spots in the world, and you’re also a very easy target for ridicule — it might be a good idea to lock up all versions of the domain name.
On a completely related note, Guy Fieri opened up a place in Times Square, and is himself a walking parody. So with the domain guysamericankitchenandbar.com still available, Bryan Mytko pounced, and created an appropriate parody site.
Probably not far off from the actual menu, visitors are made to think that they could enjoy such culinary delights as, Guy’s Big Balls, Honky-Tonky Double Barrel Meat Loaded Blast, and The ‘Hobo Lobo Bordello Slam Jam’ Appetizer. We’re not sure if anyone looking to visit the actual restaurant would know the difference — but for those in the know, check it out.
