How to Eat a Store-Bought Tuna Eyeball
There's not much how-to advice, even online, for eating tuna eyeballs. Luckily Jesse of the site Flee Alaska seemed to figure it out. For only one hundred yen—that's less than a buck—the daredevil eater couldn't pass up this deal. Without any seasonings, the gelatinous ball went into a pot of boiling water. Conclusion: "not too bad." One part tasted like a hard-boiled egg. [via Neatorama]...Photo of the Day: Salad Dressing Cake
Photograph from cakespy on Flickr At first glance, I thought Jessie Oleson of Cakespy made a cake-topped version of candy salad, but it's a cake on top of a real salad—and the cake batter contains mayonnaise. Are you cringing? Jessie says this: If you're disgusted by this cake but you're one of the many who indulged in bacon-flavored baked goods in the past year, you take a long look at yourself in the mirror before you judge the mayo cake. Because what makes up mayonnaise—egg yolks, oil, vinegar—is all stuff that would go into a cake anyway. She said it was "the most dense, moist, rich cake we've ever made." Sounds good to me!

This Korean brand of fried chicken is so good that Robocop will defy all laws of the physical world and burst out of your TV to get it. And then he'll steal your freezer. It'd only be better if he rode away on a unicorn. I'd buy that for a dollar! Watch the video after the jump....Video of Most Images of Fish Sandwiches Looked at in One Minute
The title says it all. Here's a video of Todd Lamb looking at a succession of pictures of fish sandwiches over one minute, saying, "Fish," after each one. He doesn't get very far though; he only reaches 25 pictures due to the awkward picture flipping technique. Anyone else should be able to beat his record, but then why would you bother? For the glory and fame. Watch the video after the jump....In Videos: Microwaves Play 'Jingle Bells'
The Scrooge in me says that something just doesn't add up here. How could they possibly time all these microwaves to play "Jingle Bells," accounting for the different cook times and for the time it would take to press all the "Cook" or "Start" buttons? But then my inner Jacob Marley warns me to just go with it and believe—to enjoy the show. And that's more fun. The video, after the jump. Happy seasonings!...Space Beer Has Landed
Sure, add more hops and make extreme beer Dogfish Head brewery. But, can you beat space beer. Yeah, I didn't think so. The Japanese constantly amaze me with their cute, weird, or just plain awesome inventions. Though this time, it wasn't just the Japanese. The 100 percent barley beer, called "Space Barley," was grown in a Russian laboratory on an International Space Station. The resulting beer was a collaboration of the Russian Academy of Science, Okayama University in Japan and Sapporo Breweries. Japan Times reported: The beer will not be sold to the public, but the knowledge gained will be used for space science projects and educational programs for children, Sapporo said. Barley can be cultivated in outer space...Spread Heads Spew Condiments onto Your Food
I just had a déjà vu. In second grade, the girl next to me at the lunch table started laughing. She laughed so hard that cherry-red Jell-O came shooting out of her nose. I thought I was going to barf What spurred this nostalgic trip down memory lane? None other than the two bad boys of condiments: Ketchup Charlie and Mustard Marvin. Charlie shoots ketchup out of his nose, like either a sweet, syrupy nose bleed, or like a little girl’s lunch Jell-O, depending on your point of view and personal history. Mustard Marvin hurls yellow mustard from his wide open mouth—spewing out what I tried to keep down. You see how the condiment twins brought me full circle. Just...In Videos: Susan Powter Eats a Pear
Former dieting guru Susan Powter, (in)famous in the ‘90s for her “Stop the Insanity” catchphrase, is now blogging. Who knew?
