IHOP Is Releasing A Pumpkin Pancake Beer Because Nothing Makes Sense Anymore

by

IHOP, no longer content with selling pancakes and questionable rebranding, is getting into the beer business.

Officially titled, IHOPS, the beer draws from the restaurant chain’s specialty and seasonality with this pumpkin pancake stout. And, if you’re wondering if the IHOP beer will actually taste like pancakes, apparently, they’re using actual pancake batter in the stuff. So, this makes for some perfect breakfast drinking.

IHOPS will be available in very limited availability, including the Bacon and Beer Classic in NYC this weekend — which Foodiggity will be attending, and will report back on this brew. Breakfast is gonna rule!

Deep-Fried Starbucks Pumpkin Spice Latte

Deep Fried Pumpkin Spice Latte, by Oh Bite It, takes the Fall beverage, and does what most of us would like to do with the entire trend of pumpkin-tinged foodstuffs… drop it in hot oil.

Made simply by soaking cake squares in a Starbucks PSL, they are then deep-fried and sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar. Oh, Fall… we can’t stay mad at you. Get the recipe here.

The days of carving eyes and a mouth into boring round pumpkins are over. Tony Dighera, of Cinagro Farms in California, has found a way to create Frankenpumpkins.

And these frankenpumpkins aren’t a grotesque mishmash of different gourd parts… they are your standard pumpkins, shaped into the head of Frankenstein’s monster by growing it in a mold. No carving necessary.

What’s Really In Your Pumpkin Spice-Flavored Food Item?

by Leave a Comment

The Christmas spirit hasn’t hit full stride yet, so pumpkin spice still rules. But, what exactly is in your Pumpkin Spice Latte or Pumpkin Pie Pringles? SPOILER ALERT: It ain’t pumpkin.

Not only do most food items that claim pumpkin flavoring not contain any actual pumpkin — they probably don’t even contain the actual spices typically used to accompany the bland orange vegetable.

A short yet scathing video by The New York Times breaks the p-spice scandal wide open. Where there should be nutmeg, cloves and cinnamon, there’s now lactones, ketones and cyclotenes — chemicals that toy with our fragile fall-loving minds. Please watch…
