At many Japanese restaurants, there is plastic food out front. The fake meals function as supplements to the menu so people can see what the meals actually look like. And the way this phoney food is made is fascinating.
The look of terror in my eyes is half the idea of Oreo cookies filled with Swedish Fish “flavor creme,” half the outrageous pressure put on me to eat them from the moment they became a real thing. I have done your bidding. Please release my family. The good ones, at least.

It’s not everyday that you see a noodle dish designed to look like a superhero with panties on his head. Today you will.
Social psychologist Erika D. Price put no thought into and indeed does not stand by the cereal ranking system she’s devised. Here at Snacktaku we think she’s onto something, though Smorz needs to be higher on the list.

This fall M&Ms is adding one of three new peanut flavors to its lineup. Much like the presidential race, they’re asking folks to eat each one and vote for which tastes best. Which one gets my vote?
