The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Chances are, that if you head to a McDonald’s drive-thru, they’re going to forget your fries. The LEGO McDonald’s French Fries Vending Machine, by Astonishing Studios, is here to help.
With some LEGO-building and engineering prowess, you can stock up on the yummy Mcfries… just in case. See how it’s made in the video below.
Sometimes, we just need to forego LEGO’s included instructions, throw caution to the wind, and get creative with our brick art.
Artist Michał Kulesza does this in one of the simplest and hunger-inducing ways possible. Kulesza replaces ordinary foods and everyday objects with LEGOs — creating fun scenes that look good enough to eat.
But please do not eat… LEGOs taste bad.

We’ve already seen Astonishing Studios bring us LEGO vending machines that dispense McNuggets and Cheerios. So, it seems only natural that they’d eventually use these skills to produce some fried chicken.
The LEGO KFC Machine functions just like the McNugget and Cheerios version, but the end result here is fried chicken. And, anything that ends in fried chicken can’t be bad. Check it out in action below.
If you’ve ever wondered who the coolest bride ever was, it was probably the woman who agreed to have this LEGO Wedding Cake at her big day.
Created by London-based bakery Cupcakes by SJ, it includes a few edible Minifigures, hard at work to complete the cake in time. It’s even topped with a Minifigure bride/groom.
Hopefully, their wedding song was “Everything Is Awesome.” Or, at least the daddy/daughter song.

The problem with ordinary LEGOs is that, although they’re addictive and colorful, they’re just not jiggly and edible enough.
Thankfully, there’s “The King of Random” Grant Thompson to help solve our real world problem. With a few simple ingredients and supplies, Grant makes totally edible and fully-stackable Gummy LEGO Bricks and minifigures.
Your new gummies will help make a very gelatinous tower, or any structure you can come up with. And, the best part, is that the gummy LEGOs won’t destroy your feet if stepped on.
