PIMP THAT SNACK

Well it's Wednesday. My favorite day of the week web surfing-wise cause that's when all the major newspaper publish their food sections. (I always start off with the NYTimes, of course). But while surfing Serious Eats this morning, I learned about a website called "Pimp that Snack". Apparently pimping a snack means that you take a normal snack and reproduce it in a gigantic sizes. It's started (unsurprisingly) by a bunch of Brits. I've only viewed a few projects so far, but I'm surprised at the dedication to detail, down to reproducing all the packaging. My favorites so far have been the pimping of a McDonald's Apple Pie and a Giant Twix. How these people have so much time to do this, I'm not sure. But check it out, it's amusing.
