Evil comes in all shapes and sizes, from the mighty demons that crawl out of sinkholes and destroy whole towns to that wicked cup of coffee you drink in the morning.

That's right- we're all starting our days with a steaming hot cup of sin, at least according to the Mormon church, and if you think their views on polygamy are a gas get a load of this riveting short film showing how evil is brewing around every corner.

Miss Robinson may have avoided temptation and stayed in the Mormon church's good graces, but what hope do the rest of us have if we can't get going without a cup of pure black evil in the morning?

Thanks a lot Hard-To-Find Mormon Videos, now I regret selling my soul to Folgers!

And it's worth every penny!

As we all know, haggis is the world's finest food. And if it's possible to improve upon perfection, then the haggis makers at Macsween have done it.

January 25 is Burns Night, an annual celebration of the Scottish poet Robert Burns, as well as all that is the good life, such as warm haggis, quality scotch, and bagpipe music. In short, it's an annual celebration of Scottish culture.

To mark the occasion, Macsweens has produced a line of haggis that comes with edible gold bits that you can sprinkle on top. The Scotsman reports:

With a price tag of £4,000, the beloved fixture of any Burns Supper has been handcrafted to the Macsween family recipe but with an infusion of rare ingredients which have been sourced from Scotland and the far corners of the globe.

The list includes Highland Wagyu beef, raised on a Perthshire farm where all cattle has its own name; white summer truffle from France, considered ‘diamonds of the kitchen’ by chefs the world over; and black pepper (tellicherry) from India, which can only be grown at a latitude of 2,000-3,000 feet above sea level.

Writing a name coherently on the side of a cup is definitely not a prerequisite skill for baristas, which is why I always tell them my name is Frank, because it's hard to muck that one up.

But some baristas have a real knack for turning a perfectly ordinary and easy to read name into a illegible jumble of letters or a bizarre new word nobody has ever heard of.

If you think you've got the code breaking skills to figure out barista handwriting then you should take the Can You Guess What Names These Baristas Were Trying To Spell? quiz here.

Some of them are really hard to figure out, but they'll all make you wonder what those coffee fumes are doing to their minds!

Miss Insomnia Tulip of the bakery Lou Lou P's Delights bakes works of art. In the past we've seen loaves of bread that look like cats and pugs and David Hasselhoff naked, as well as a chocolate eclair that looks like Burt Reynolds naked.

Now, continuing in her theme of unsettlingly cute breads, she brings us croissants that look like cats. Yes, I know what the top one is doing.

Recently, the hamburger and shake heaven known as Shake Shack announced that it would offer a fried chicken sandwich, and fast foodies rejoiced. Once the item was available for taste testing, a number of food site and other "experts" did just that.

In this article from Delish, the breaded chicken sandwich offerings of popular fast food restaurants are taste tested and ranked. Descriptions and reasons for the decisions accompany the rankings. Check out the results here. If you happen to like the occasional fast food chicken sandwich and have tried some or all of the contenders, let us know how you feel about their findings in the comment section, if you're so inclined. 

Amy of the marvelous food blog Oh, Bite It understands that everything is better after it's been deep fried. In the past, she's deep fried bacon-covered Oreos, an entire Thanksgiving dinner, candy corn, and tequila. 

Her most recent project advances the science of deep frying even further. It's a remarkably simple recipie. Amy wrapped globs of peanut butter in canned crescent roll dough, fried them, then sprinkled on powdered sugar. Yummy!

Welp, it's time to pack and move to Japan. Actually, there's no need to pack because the only thing that you truly need is already there. Rocket News 24 reports that McDonald's restaurants in Japan will offer to customers French fries as Nature intended: covered with chocolate sauce.

They're called McChocolate Potatoes. Servings go on sale on January 26 for about $2.75 or your first born child. They come dripped with both regular chocolate, white chocolate, and love.

You've probably heard about strange recipes from the 40s and 50s, dishes like lime cheese salad, lobster relish or ham and banana hollandaise that seem too repulsive to eat.

Well, not all retro recipes are repulsive, nor do they all call for Jell-O gelatin, because as Hank and Katherine Green from the vlogbrothers YouTube channel discovered some are just plain bland!

Thankfully Hank and Katherine are adventurous eaters willing to make, and taste test, some of the strange recipes found in a neat old newspaper clipping cookbook Katherine inherited from her grandmother. 

I had Mexican chop suey once...at a Chinese restaurant in Tijuana!

Most hot dog challenges involve shoving dozens of hot dogs down your throat in front of a cheering crowd, but this video by Howard Lee of Aberystwyth, Wales features a different kind of hot dog challenge.

The challenge here is to figure out which hot dog is real and which is a photo realistic drawing:

Natasha of the food blog Through the Eyes of My Belly has started publishing her work very recently. It was only last week that she introduced herself to the people of the internet with her bacon and chocolate shot glasses.

I expect to see only wonderful things from Natasha. She's promptly followed up on that culinary marvel with edible shots made of mozzarella cheese and filled with marinara sauce.

To make them, first, she cut a block of mozzarella into large chunks with hollowed-out tops. She rolled these in flour, washed them in egg, then rolled them again in bread crumbs. After freezing them solid for 2 hours, she deep fried the cheese chunks and filled them with marinara sauce. Yummy!

I’m starting to understand why college meal plans cost so much. Once upon a time, when I was in college, we thought we were clever for mixing coffee and hot chocolate for an after-dinner drink. My roommate would cut up boiled eggs (the “vegetarian” substitute) to make egg salad sandwiches when she didn’t like the entree. But that’s nothing compared to some of the recipes college students have devised using ingredients found in modern dining halls. How about Cream Cheese French Toast with “Caramelized” Bananas? Pizza Panini? Tater Tot Grilled Cheese? That’s good eating. Shown here is a Waffle Breakfast Sandwich. Find the recipe for it at Spoon University. And see the entire list of dining hall recipes at Buzzfeed.

The speakeasy trend is still going strong, but nowadays these "secret" drinking spots don't need to hide because of Prohibition laws- they're just using a gimmick to attract adventurous patrons.

But don't get me wrong, gimmicks can be fun as long as they enhance the experience, and a fun gimmick can really set the mood!

A new speakeasy in Los Angeles called Adults Only requires patrons to make their way through a video store to the adult section, where they can head behind the curtain and drink in the lap of old time luxury.

The juxtaposition of cheeky entrance and classy interior makes for a memorable speakeasy experience, and the video store isn't actually in operation so you don't have to feel like a pervert walking into the place!

I'm sure most drivers charged with a DUI claim they "only had a few" when they're arrested, but a recent court case proves sometimes they're telling the truth- because they suffer from Auto-brewery syndrome.

Auto-brewery syndrome causes food and drinks to ferment in their stomachs, which can cause blood alcohol content levels to spike and result in a misreading.

A schoolteacher from upstate New York recently had her DUI charges dismissed when she submitted medical proof that her BAC was 4 times over the legal limit due to this strange syndrome.

(YouTube Link)

Doctors monitored the woman for a day and discovered her average BAC was .34, four times the legal limit in New York, even though she didn't drink a drop of alcohol.

There are no signs or doors. You don't get a menu or a place to sit.

The mysterious proprietor known only as "Papa" has occupied the old newstand for several years. Knock at the right time--he has no posted hours--and he'll give you the best Caribbean food, such as this:

People in the know use Papa to get their fix of curry goat and chicken. Scott Heins of Gothamist visited and learned more about the secretive source of top-end Caribbean cuisine:

"Six or ten?" Papa asks each customer—his dishes of curry goat, marinated chicken, oxtail, and sauteed fish comes in only two prices, and are sized to match. Rice, beans, and chopped vegetables accompany each, and everything arrives piping hot in a styrofoam container. Your dining options are, of course, limited, but then the benches of Brower Park are only a 5 minute stroll away. […]

Despite a total lack of advertising and promotion in a neighborhood brimming with West Indian eateries, the chicken cavern has managed to keep its simple and tasty operation running. Papa opens the window when his morning prep work is finished, and closes up shop when the day's stock runs out.
