Photograph from Another Pint Please... on Flickr When I first saw this photo, I thought it was funny because the chickens were positioned in such a way that made them look like they were casually sitting down and having a chat. "Hey, I have a can up my butt." "Yeah, me too." Then I saw the title "Limbo!" and got a different perspective. Either way, anthropomorphizing headless roast chickens is weird.

When Nat King Cole came into this world, his parents must have wondered what cabbage-based sides his name would sound like. The legendary jazz musician looks pretty happy about his face rendered in creamy cole slaw gunk. Other genius creations by the artist Suspect and Fugitive include: Tomato Pasty Cline from tomato paste, Anchovy Bon Jovi from anchovy paste, and Flight of the Concord Grape Juice from the purple liquid. Picnic barbecue with only pun-honoring dishes, anyone?... More

Few things are as alluring as the golden crust of "deep fried." Kelly Schmickle made a dinner out of frying morels in a simple beer batter and seasoning them with salt and pepper. This is definitely not what I'm having for dinner tonight, although I wish it were.

Photograph from c.buras on Flickr. Next time you're at the market, be wary of one-eyed, one-horned flying purple pepper eaters. Overall, they're pretty harmless creatures. It's the one-eyed, one-horned flying purple human eaters you have to watch out for. Brutal, and far less tasty.... More

I opened my new bottle of grapeseed oil bought from a Korean grocery store expecting a run-of-the-mill spout. but instead flicked open the cap to reveal a tube-like protrusion. My first thought was, "Damn, that's awesome!" But then I took a closer look and realized the tube was part of a larger design: an elephant's face. The spout was elevated from "awesome" to "BEST THING I HAVE EVER SEEN (related to bottles of oil)." But seriously, isn't that an awesome design? Is anyone else's mind totally blown? (Please say yes, or else I'll think I'm insane.) I've lost count of how many times I've poured oil out of a bottle with a too-large spout and cursed the spout for... More

Something about Darren Elliott's photo of a bowl of tonkotsu Taiwan ramen is making me unable to think of much else besides scarfing down a huge bowl of noodles. I only just looked up what tonkotsu ramen was after looking at this photo, which Wikipedia explains uses a "thick broth made by boiling pork bones, fat, and collagen over high heat for hours on end, suffusing the broth with a hearty pork flavor and a creamy consistency that rivals milk or melted butter or gravy." Melted butter. I'd drink it. Related Takashi Murakami-Inspired Instant Ramen Noodle Packaging Photo of the Day: Ice Cream Ramen The Best Bowl of Noodles in the World... More

If I were Lelo's dog, I'd maul the tray of Lelo's strawberry cupcakes with strawberry frosting after posing so obediently for this photo. Previously Photo of the Day: Gorgeous Oregon Strawberries Photo of the Day: KISS Apple Pie... More

That's no ordinary check; it's a cup-eating monster! The horror! Actually, it's a check with a large circle cut out of it and some eyes and choice words written along its side, but just use your imagination. My friend Ian, creator of the "Om Nom Nom Nom Check," sent me this photo knowing I would get a kick out of it. It also gives me the excuse to employ the underused "om nom nom nom" tag.... More

"It is hard to argue that the frank at Nathan's is not the quintessential American hot dog," says Nick Solares in his post about the original Nathan's at Coney Island. The frank's patriotic quality stands out in his photo of the hot dog against a backdrop of the American flag—it's an ideal food for the 4th of July. We first saw this photo in Nick's Photograzing post. Be sure to share your most photogenic eats at Photograzing, Serious Eats' new food photography-sharing site.... More
