This Chocolate Manhole Cover Is Right Up Our Alley

If you stop for a second, in the middle of the street, and take a good look at a manhole cover, you might notice that some are actually quite beautiful. Especially if said manhole cover was edible.

The Chocolate Manhole Cover is brought to us by Twitterer @38beem. It’s made of solid chocolate, with the ‘rust’ created with cocoa powder and the ‘street’ made with different-colored cookie crumbles. Now stop staring and get out of the street.

The Oreo Manhole Cover

The Oreo cookie wafer… It’s round, distinctively embossed, and if oversized and rendered in cast iron, would make an ideal manhole cover. Fortunately, artist Andrew Lewicki was thinking ahead.

Behold the Oreo Manhole Cover. At 28 inches in diameter, and actually cast in iron, the replica chocolate wafer will certainly keep you from falling into any manhole. Unfortunately, it does not come double stuffed.
