The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
This is why we don’t take candy from strangers. This creepy Halloween candy is brought to us by artist Andrew Bell. Part of his ongoing series, The Creatures in my Head, the scary candies include Kisses of Death and Kill Kats.
So, remember kids, always check your candy on Halloween before you eat it. You might live in Andrew Bell’s neighborhood.
Sausage In Art is a clever and very meaty project by photographer Karsten Wegener, designer Silke Baltruschat and food stylist Raik Holst. The series, which recreates famous works of art, does it using the medium of deli meats.
Whether it’s Koon’s “Balloon Dog” rendered in hot dog, or Hirst’s dot series replaced with rows of pork-based cold cuts — the series will give you a new appreciation of modern art. Just pass the mustard.

Artist Milena Korolczuk, recently took a fun break from her work in film and photography, and found a use for Wonder Bread. Using the poor-man’s Play-Doh, Korolczuk sculpted the heads of famous figures, including Andy Warhol, Jay-Z, Plato, Abramović, and Walt Disney.
Thankfully, the crusts are cut off in advance, so kids can enjoy some Wonder Bread art too. See more here.
A few artists, including Alexander Barrett, were asked to participate in Oreo’s Super Bowl Instagram Experience… Challenge accepted. For three days Barrett and others used the cookies and cream to create sculptures from pictures sent to them by fans. The results are pretty awesome and dunk-worthy.

Artist and friend of Foodiggity Eric Barclay’s toaster broke. So he went ahead and did what he does best, and repurposed an everyday item in the name of art.
Burnt Texas Toast began as the aforementioned toaster that no longer works and, inspired by Milton the Talking Toaster, was upcycled into awesomeness.
See more works from Eric, and one of our most popular posts ever here.
