The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Is it still food art, if the subject is completely inedible? That’s the question artist T.Q. Lee asks with Inedible, a photo series of food styling created from everyday and household items.
LEGO cereal, donuts made from socks, or a layer cake made from mud — Lee’s project challenges our perception of what makes us hungry, or grosses us out. The hot dog made from a rubber glove does a bit of both.

LEGO my shot glass. The Build-On Brick Shot Glass is a fun way to get your drink on, while you add you own flair.
The set of four colorful and bricky shot glasses doesn’t actually include additional bricks… But you can always break out your brick stash and get creative. We’d love to see what you come up with after a few LEGO shots.

What did you do, Ray? Actually, the LEGO Stay Puft Marshmallow Man was created by toy brick-artist, Brent Waller.
Estimated at 1800 Pieces and 60 hours of build time, this Mr. Stay Puft will gladly step on any church in your LEGO town. However, he’s nothing that a few ghost-busting minifigs can’t handle.

We’ve seen giant pieces of sushi, and sushi made of LEGOS. So Giant LEGO Sushi makes perfect sense. Brought to us by Siercon & Coral, the oversized maki was created for a competition on Flickr called the ‘Iron Builder’. Pass the extra crunchy wasabi and let’s do this thing.
We’ve all used a hand mixer at one time or another to mix our cake or brownie batter. Now, picture that same process infinitely cooler with a Hand Mixer made entirely of LEGOS.
Brought to us by Hippotam over at Flickr — not only will the kids go crazy at the mere sight of the Hippmikser 2000, but watching it actually mix may or may not make their heads explode.
But does it actually work?… We say, if you don’t find any LEGO bricks in your cake, it’s a success.
