The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
If you’re very good at making realistic-looking fake food for restaurant displays, then creating food jewelry and accessories seems like a great idea.
That’s what fake food manufacturer Hatanaka had in mind, when they created a line of hyperrealistic-looking food jewelry and accessories.
Whether it’s a Soba Necklace, or a Bacon Belt — the accessories will keep you fashionable while making the people and pets around you hungry.

If you’re in need of a shower after a serious dose of meat sweats, you can stick with a theme and dry off with the Meat Towel.
The Niku Towel (meat towel) comes packaged in butcher paper for the full effect. Wrap one around you after your much-needed shower. Or, use them as your guest towels to annoy your vegetarian friends.
Made in Japan. Meaty.

Doritos, which are traditionally triangle or large crumb-shaped, just aren’t Christmas-y enough. Luckily, Japan is on the case, and will be releasing a Christmas tree-shaped version of the corn chip.
Officially-titled Doritos Rock’n White Corn Cream Stew, the chips will not only be colored green, but are also corn soup-flavored for some reason. The chips will be released only in Japan on November 17th.

To raise condom awareness in Japan, and help make your meals a bit more phallic, there’s Condom Meals I Want to Make for You.
The cookbook, brought to us by Japanese authors Kyosuke Kagami and Opanpon, uses condoms as a cooking vessel — thankfully not as an actual ingredient.
Simply slide your ingredients into a prophylactic, and you’ll start making your dinner guests uncomfortable in no time. But at least you know they’ll be encouraged to practice safe sex in your coat closet.

To help make sure that all of your accessories are fried chicken-related, KFC Japan is back with more giveaways.
The KFC Drumstick iPhone Case is here to help protect your phone. Although it looks a bit ridiculous, it may wind up being a bit smaller than the iPhone 6 Plus, and will look a bit more appropriate while you’re eating an actual drumstick in your other hand.
Although not actually for sale, the KFC iPhone Case will be awarded to one lucky drumstick-lover who follows KFC Japan on Twitter.
