That peapod costume is absolutely adorable. I think I saw a grown man wearing the hot dog one the last time I went to Wrigley Field.

I was a picnic and a bunch of grapes when I was a child. A serious eater in the making :)

Everyone, the hotdog costume comes with a little ketchup bag for treats, and the banana with a little peel. How cute is that?

That muffin one is a mascot costume, which is why it is super expensive. It's build to stand up for repeated use, like say if a bakery wanted someone shilling outside their shop on a regular basis.
Doesn't look like it's being advertised as a Halloween costume.

I have to say that's a pretty sad looking muffin for that kind of dough.
Pun not intentional.
The Wheaties box is genius!

I forced my daschund/beagle mix, Noodle, to be a hotdog with mustard last year for Hallwoeen. This year I may dress him as a chicken (since that's what we call him half the time).

the hat on the taco costumed guy takes it from fun food costume to offensive cultural misappropriation costume.

I guess that I don't have to say "Where's the beef?"
