Did you know that cross-cutting the ends of hot dogs before you cook them will make them look like little pink octopi?

Well, now you can make that tubed meat look even more like a multi-legged sea creature with Octopus Corn Dogs. Brought to us by Tastemade, the octopi are made very easily by cutting mini hot dogs, dipping them in batter and frying.

Add eyes and a mouth to create the appropriate stunned look, just before you bite their heads off.

The food-stuffed-inside-another-food craze appeared to have reached its pinnacle with the Turducken and the Pumpple. That was before the culinary monstrosity that is the Cthurkey — a turkey stuffed with octopus.

Inspired by H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu — the surf and turf was actually created a few years ago by Rusty Eulberg, a database administrator from Lubbock, Texas.

It wasn’t until the Cthurkey reared its ugly head again on Twitter, where it went viral, and started giving everyone awesome ideas for Christmas Dinner.
