Food You Can't Actually Eat

Posted by Stacy in Food & Drinks on December 21, 2007 at 1:10 pm


It’s always this time of year when my crafty side kicks into high gear.  I think it’s a combination of me thinking that I need to make a homemade Christmas gift for everyone I know and the fact that it’s cold outside so I have a lot more free time to putter around.  At any rate, this means that I log a lot of hours looking for new projects, especially on Craftster.org.  In doing so, I’ve noticed a lot of fake food.  Some of it seems to have a purpose (pin cushions that look like little cakes) and some of it… well, it’s just fun.  

Olive Loaf shawl

What you’re probably asking yourself right now is, “Is that an crocheted shawl that looks like olive loaf?” and the answer is yes.  Yes it is.  Stay tuned for more of my favorite food that you can’t eat.  To see more of Lady Linoleum’s insanely cool crochet, check out monstercrochet.blogspot.com.

    Let me clarify... not favorite food to EAT, my favorite non-edible food-like creations. :)

    The crocheted version disgusts me as much as the real thing, I think.

    What the crap is an Olive Loaf? The Wikipedia article on it is sorely lacking.

    This is yet more proof that some people have way too much time on their hands.

    I think it's funny as all get out. Dad had a rule when I was a kid. In order to get that all important and favorite PB&J sammich, you had to have a cold cuts sammich first. He would buy the god awful olive loaf just for this. Saddist that he was, I now love the stuff.

    Tim that's called child abuse.
