Behold The Churro Dog

churro-dog

Churros do not need any help to be awesome. But if they are to be messed with, then you might as well go all out.

Enter, the Churro Dog… A dessert concoction that not only improves upon the already perfect churro, but might just replace traditional hot dogs altogether.

The Churro Dog is actually a new offering at Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks. Now to the important stuff… One churro, topped with three scoops of frozen yogurt, whipped cream, chocolate and caramel sauce, all placed within a chocolate-glazed donut.

How many calories are in the Churro Dog? Who cares? Go Diamondbacks!! Go Churro Dog!!

KFC Has Unleashed The Double Down Dog

Intent on making sure that all bread is eventually replaced with fried chicken, KFC is now testing out the Double Down Dog.

Following in the protein-heavy footsteps of the KFC Double Down, the Double Down Dog is a wiener wrapped in a slab of fried chicken, and covered in a mysterious cheese sauce.

Unfortunately, for anyone who’s morbidly curious about ingesting one of these, the Double Down Dog is only available for a very limited test release in parts of the Philippines.

Now, can someone explain how they get the chicken to bend like that? Asking for a friend.

These Giant Crocheted Food Hats Are Everything

chiliphilly-1

Because, who doesn’t want to be as warm and as stylish as possible this winter? Phil Ferguson, aka ChiliPhilly, does. So he’s created several crocheted hats, designed to look like he’s wearing giant food items on his head.

The hats are crocheted by Phil, without a pre-existing pattern. Although, the hats are one-ups and not available for sale, Phil admits that he hasn’t even worn one out in public. For one, he admits that he doesn’t want them to get ruined. Another reason, perhaps, is the general public not quite being ready for a giant pizza or hot dog-head walking around.

Check out a few of Phil’s food heads below, with more to be found at Instagram.
