A Burrito Stuffed With Cheetos

Taco Bell continues to experiment with fusion cuisine, meaning mashing up whatever is popular into their menu somehow. The latest entry into that process is a natural outgrowth of the relationship between Frito-Lay and Taco Bell. After the success of the Doritos Locos Tacos, they are finding new ways to add junk food to fast food. Behold, the Cheeto Burrito! It will contain meat and rice in addition to Cheetos. The new burrito will be test-marketed in Cincinnati beginning in mid-August. THe recommended price is $1, so we assume you'll need to buy several. Especially if it's after midnight and you have a raging case of the munchies.

Guy Busts Out A Dubstep Beat Using Only His Mouth And A McDonald's Soda

Dubstep used to be the electronic soundtrack of choice for movies and TV shows, oh, and commercials loved to slam it in our faces too.

Now you rarely hear that dubstep wub-wub-wub-wub pouring out of the world's speakers, and musicians no longer need digital equipment to do the dubstep beat up proper like.

Now they can just chill at McDonald's and create the rhythm using their mouth and a straw.

The guy in the video is Parker Kane, and he's auditioning to become the one-man-band at his local McDonald's restaurant...nailed it!

Community Fridge Crook Discovers They've Been "Borrowing" Breast Milk

(Image Link)

You'd think those sneaky little crooks who steal other people's food from the community fridge at work would have learned their lesson by now, especially after reading all the revenge stories posted online.

But it appears one hungry jerk in particular never saw any of these stories, and they continued to use up a fellow employee's "coffee creamer" until this note appeared on the bottle:

(Image Link)

If the comments on Reddit are any indication then discovering the creamer is actually breast milk would be no big deal, but something tells me Redditors aren't the norm and most guys would be horrified by this discovery.

The Bourbon Burger

(Photo: Chicken & Sons)

Chicken & Sons, a restaurant in Chatsworth, New South Wales, Australia, now offers the perfect breakfast burger. Their $22 Bourbon Burger has bourbon-glazed bacon, bourbon-based barbecue sauce, and a whole shot of bourbon in a cup cut into the bun. It comes with beer-battered fries that have been glazed with bourbon. I suspect that you could also order it with bourbon on the side, too.

McDonald's Asked People To Invent Their Own Burgers, The Internet Complied

(Image Link)

Corporations have been looking to the internet for help since the very beginning...and it has never worked out well for them.

Nowadays these corporations are just looking for the viral boost these epic online poll fails provide, and yet they're never really prepared for the trolling they receive.

(Image Link)

McDonald's New Zealand asked the internet community to use their app and invent their own burgers, and what they got was the Sad European, the Carbonator and something called Girth.

(Image Link)

As expected the app has been removed from the McDonald's New Zealand website, so no tasteless burger designing for you, but I'm sure another internet poll worthy of trolling to come along soon!

Menus Reveal What The Different Passenger Classes Ate On The Titanic

People naturally have a morbid curiosity about the Titanic disaster, wondering about every little detail of that fateful April night in 1912, and slowly but surely virtually every detail has been revealed since.

As you may be aware there were three classes of passengers on board, and each class was treated quite differently during the voyage, but how differently is best illustrated by the three different class menus.

The First Class menu is suitably posh and pretentious, with consomme fermier instead of rice soup, egg a l'argenteuil instead of ham & eggs, and Camembert and Stilton instead of "cheese". 

And then there are the poor Third Class passengers who are stuck eating gruel, "cabin biscuits" (a name that somehow sounds hard and tasteless), and plain old boiled potatoes.

First class or third class, they were all equal in the end...

The Pizza Equation

We know that pie are square, and that’s very important when you’re talking about pizza pie, which is not square. How do you get the most pizza for your dollar? By doing the math.  

(YouTube link

Yes, you’ll save money by buying a larger pizza, but there are a few other things to consider, as our friends at Uproxx point out.

There are a couple downsides that the video fails to mention. Because when you’re feeding 20 people one pizza, you have to pick one flavor to satisfy everyone. Also, one pizza means you can’t cut the pizza into those satisfying wedges. (Well, you could, but they’d be thin, and you’d look cheap.)

Also, there’s no reason to buy more pizza than you need, unless you’re willing to eat leftovers for a while. But if you are, the extra slices won’t cost you all that much. Just remember to refrigerate it.

Ice Cream Served on Grilled Corn on the Cob

(Photo: Dominique Ansel)

Sure, it sounds like a random idea. But it's not. Chef Dominique Ansel, the inventor of the cronut and the chocolate chip milk shot, knows what he's doing. His research led him to the invention of Crème de la Corn. It's made with an ear of unshucked corn grilled with butter and soy sauce. On top is a swirl of Ansel's own Caramel Sweet Corn-flavored soft serve ice cream which is itself topped by caramel and a few kernels of corn.

What does it taste like? Kay of Rocket News 24 tried Ansel's latest confection. She says:

The caramel and corn in the ice cream were certainly a winning and sweet combination! And along with the corn jam, the ice cream was like a cold, frozen form of pure corn and sweetness — certainly a great treat for the hot summer.

But what’s brilliant about this Crème de la Corn is that it’s not over when you’ve finished eating the ice cream. You have the grilled corn cob on the bottom which is essentially an edible ice cream cone!

How to Make a Poutine Taco

It's not quite Mexican and it's not quite Canadian. It's Mexiadian food. The Vulgar Chef (content warning: foul language) expands this fusion food tradition with his poutine taco.

First, he chopped up French fries and added shredded cheese. After warming this mixture, he shaped it into a taco shell and placed it in a taco mold. After adding cheese curd and brown gravy, he was ready for an awesomely unhealthy meal.

Deep Fried Poutine

Amy of the marvy food blog Oh, Bite It! is deepy frying again, so let's head to her kitchen to see what deliciously fatty treats we can get. This time, she's making a deep fried version of poutine, the essential Québécois treat.

First, Amy cut cubes of cheese curd, floured them, and dipped them in an egg wash. Then she rolled them in crushed potato chips (yes, I know that poutine purists may object), and put them in the deep fryer. Dip them in brown gravy and you've got the perfect breakfast food.

Hungry for some great style? Then don't miss this chic pizza necklace for sale on Etsy. It's the perfect way to say "I put my heart in pizza."

How to Cook a Pig in the Ground Hawaiian Style

Stratton Lawrence of The Art of Manliness explains that this isn't just a way to get good roast pork. It's also "a cultural experience." 

Lawrence and his friends prepared for their luau by building an imu in which to cook their whole pig. An imu is a an underground oven made with cinderblocks and dirt. Once the pig is seasoned and the wrapped and the coals burning hot, Lawrence buried the entire pit.

It's a complex process that takes days of work. But the end result is the best barbecue pork in the world. You can see more photos and read more about this Hawaiian tradition at The Art of Manliness.

Shark Tea Bags

(Photo: Makuake)

Lurking beneath the surface of the tea in your cup is a deadly predator. It's steeping in the water, waiting for the right moment to leap out and devour the label.

Tokyo Weekender reports that the Daisho Fisery Company in Japan has designed these novel tea bags. The Great White Shark is filled with a rosehip and hibiscus tea that gives the water a blood red tint. The comparatively harmless whale shark is filled with green tea. Choose appropriately.
