The Kwik-E-Mart Food Truck Is Rolling Into SXSW

kwik-e-mart

Who needs the Kwik-E-Mart? Music and tech-craving hipsters doooooo!!! A mobile version of Springfield’s go-to convenience store will be rolling into SXSW this year. Complete with storefront graphics and Apu, the truck was created to help celebrate the 25th anniversary of the Kwik-E-Mart’s first appearance on The Simpsons.

Now, here’s the tricky part… The ‘food truck’ will not be offering expired hot dogs and after-dinner burritos, but rather free Squishees and demos of the new Simpsons World app. Thank you, come again.

This Valentine’s Day, Say It With A Food Card

il_570xN.563214150_jqm7

It’s almost Valentine’s Day, aka, the one day out of the year when you’re allowed to express yourself with chocolate foodstuffs and paper products.

But beware… Valentine’s Day is also the one day that your emotional vacancy will be fully exposed for your lover to see… so it’s best not to blow it. And, what better way to let your partner know how you feel, than with tacky wordplay placed on a piece of folded card-stock?

Here are a few ideas for those who would rather have a card do the talking for them… or, if your lover is just really into clever wordplay and foodstuffs. In which case, congrats.

 

everything

You’re My Everything

If you’re a person of few words, then ‘You’re My Everything‘ will go a long way on Valentine’s Day. Take this very brief sentiment even further with the addition of an actual everything bagel. But only include lox and cream cheese if they’re marriage material. [link]

 

chicky-chicky

You’re The Chicky Chicky To My Parm Parm

Whether or not you’re a fan of Parks and Recreation and the musings of Tom Haverford, you cannot deny the effectiveness of this nonsensical statement. And, as we all know, few things go together better than battered chicken breast and melted cheese.

Of course, this card would be even more effective if accompanied by an actual chicken parm sandwich, or some ‘chicken catch’ and ‘super water.’ Thanks, Tom. [link]

 

cinnamon-roll

You’re The Center Of My Cinnamon Roll

Cinnamon rolls are sexy… we know this to be true. So, telling someone that they’re the center of your cinnamon roll is sexxxy. See, I just put more Xs in sexy to convey, oh, never mind. [link]

 

french-fries

I Love You Like I Love French Fries

If you’ve been trying to answer the incalculable question of “How much do you love me?” then we think this card could help. And, if your valentine this year is a keeper, you can tell them that you love them like fries with cheese and gravy. That’s commitment. [link]

 

sriracha

I Love You More Than Sriracha

We know how you feel… you simply cannot place food in your mouth unless there’s sriracha on it. Your partner knows this… so telling them that you love them more than the greatest condiment in recorded history, will surely score you some points this year. [link]

 

wiener

You’re The Only Wiener For My Bun

Although this card could be considered a bit suggestive, or taken the wrong way, it is undeniably adorable. And, if it does get taken the wrong way, you can both go out for hot dogs and talk about it, because you’re a classy couple. [link]

 

cupcakes

You Are Greater Than A Cupcake

Ah, the good ol’ “you are greater than [insert awesome food item]” approach. We’ve seen this work for bacon... So, why not give it a shot with the trendiest of all food items?

Just make sure that your valentine knows ‘greater than/less than,’ or this card makes it look like you’re either calling them a cupcake, or asking them to get you a cupcake. Any of which is actually pretty good. [link]

6 Reasons Why World Nutella Day Exists

cosmic_nutella

 

Good morning and Happy World Nutella Day… the day that we get to celebrate what could be the greatest food item in recorded history.

Here at Foodiggity, we present a few examples of why people lose their minds over the chocolate and hazelnut foodstuff, and how Nutella inspires us to do great things.

So, enjoy your Nutella Day. We hope it is spent with good people and large brown jars.

 

nutellasagna

Nutellasagna

Late last year, the world was made just a little bit better with the introduction of Nutellasagna. Brought to us by Robicelli’s in Bay Ridge, NYC — Nutellasagna is a dessert lasagna containing Nutella and other ingredients we don’t care about right now… this is Nutella’s Day.

 

brownie-waffles-bacon

 

Brownie Waffles Topped With Nutella and Bacon

The only thing that can upstage bacon and brownies, is oozing Nutella. Exhibit A… Brownie Waffles Topped With Nutella and Bacon. Make some of your own, and create the most important meal of any day ever.

 

nugtellareal

Weed-Infused Nutella

Not since Goober Grape, has two things coexisted in one jar so miraculously. Nugtella, a weed-infused Nutella, was created by Organicares, a medical marijuana dispensary in San Jose, CA — i.e., the most considerate place that ever existed.

Personalized Nutella

Nutella theft is real, people. So how do you stake claim to a jar that you’d like all to yourself, without a passive aggressive note stapled to it? Personalize your Nutella jar with your name, that’s how.

 

 

cosmic_nutella

 

Cosmic Nutella

We’re not sure why this animated GIF exists… but it does beg a few important questions. Are we alone in the universe? If there is life out there, do you think they’d like Nutella? Can I have some Cosmic Nutella? We need answers.

 

eat_nutella

A Guy Eats An Entire Jar of Nutella

As mentioned, Nutella does inspire mere mortals to do great things. This, however, is probably not one of those things. Watch as competitive eater and Nutella-enthusiast, Furious Pete, consumes an entire jar of Nutella in one sitting.

Happy Nutella Day, everyone!!
