Pimp My Snack
http://www.pimpmysnack.com/
This site is dedicated to super awesome culinary projects, most of which are making incredible giant-sized versions of confections that you'll find at any corner store (my favorite so far is the Reese's Mothership), but it's also home to many other insane snack food experiments; it's not just chocolate, big hot dogs and fried eggs and other stuff are all there as well, but still, its true talent lies in the creation of macro-sweets. It also includes recipes and directions on how to make your own. http://www.pimpmysnack.com/images/pr...reo/Oreo8b.jpg Good lord, I'd hit that... |
Here's what he'd hit for the curious.
http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/6223/untitled7rb.png The comic effect of giant food spikes when accompanied with people attempting to eat it. Otherwise, it's pretty, "huh, well how 'bout that." |
Looking at the pictures, I see someone having a 'OMG THEY'RE HUEG LIEK XBOX!' kinda moment, but I couldn't see anyone actually wanting to eat them (at least I wouldn't want to, anyway). They just don't really look too good. I guess bigger isn't always beter.:(

That Oreo and the Doritos chips were the only replicas that I thought were appealing. The other snacks looked too artificial.
|
Somehow I'm thinking everything would taste absolutely awful.
If I wanted to die a slow painful and early death to cardiovascular disease and obesity, I'd rather savor many tiny foods rather than attempt to consume a giant disgusting one. Big food, how hi-larious. |
It'd be a cool party favor or center for sure. I'm sure people would get a kick out of it and be enjoying the fact they're eating an oreo the size of their torso.

Yeah, I remember my one friend's mom would bake this GIANT chocolate chip cookie to serve as a birthday treat instead of just making a whole lot of little cookies. It wasn't anything super-special tasting, but the way she presented it made it really cool.

Reminds me of this resturant in California called BJs. They have a desert called a pizookie, which is a freshly baked cookie straight out of the oven with globs of ice cream on top.
If you had a party at BJs, you'd order the giant pizookie which was 6 flavors and gallons of ice cream on top. The center would always be slightly underdone, so it'd be the best part, where you'd mix semi-raw hot cookie dough with melting ice cream. That's awesome big food. |
I wish they'd include the nutrition information for me to laugh at.
|
They do on a lot of them, Pom.

It's a good idea, but most if not all look absolutely revolting to me. But it seems like a fun project to do if you just feel like burning cash.
|
Instead of making them huge, they should have added Smarties hubcaps and 1/2 Oreo spoilers to chocolate bars. That'd be hardcore.
