And i cannot remember where in the hell i found the image of the sexy meat car, but i wish i could drive it on a hot, hot road until it was all charred on the outside and steamy rare on the inside and then i'd eat it with my fingers and get all greasy. That, my friends, is what art means to me.

Paula's fried butter balls

So tiny, so innocent, so deadly
Meditate upon their simple perfection of being
Place a single one upon your tongue
Do not think, feel
Ka-thwack!
Struck by a blinding insight into the nature of oneness
The way to enlightenment is buttered
Vigilantly practice such rightness

The source of this conceptual munchery escapes me, but I love it just the same. How about a footlong hotdog necklace??

I guess many of us are in denial concerning the preparation of our fav. foods.. well I was concerning Hot-dogs.  This video ruined everything for me.. starting from the addition of 'liquid smoke'..and then moving on to the dumper wheel... literally making it look like pureed feces. YUM!

This is not a joke. I repeat, this is not a joke.
 
Behold the McNuggetini.
 
McDonalds chocolate shake, McNuggests, BBQ sauce, Vanilla vodka. Lots of vanilla vodka.
 
Dance with me, Eunice, out in the yard. Hell, let's line dance on the roof of my rusty Chevy chassis.

Deep fried Coke!
 
This type of pure American genius is why you don't mess with Texas. Ever.
 
Coke flavored batter, grease fried of course, then sprinkled with cinnamon and smothered in Coke syrup, with a mighty dairy dollop of whipped cream and a cherry on the top.
 
Seriously, does anyone have frequent flier miles they can spare me?
 
The 2009 Texas State Fair runs from Sept 25th thru Oct 18th and this year's theme is "All aboard for food and fun!" (And, yes, the exclamation point is mandatory.) How can you not get with that? For the URL alone, this pilgrimage is worth its weight in bad cholesterol: www.BigTex.com

Chicken fried steak might not be good for you, but think of what it's like for the steer flesh. And for love. Meta meaty art from the genius stop motion mind of Jan Svankmager, my newest favorite person. Youtube him up, people.
 
Thanks to www.meatpaper.com for the heads up.

This might be a little too high end for my decidedly trailer park taste buds, but who among us hasn't had at least one sweaty dream about bacon marshmallows?
 
Created for a west coast meat party thrown by the flesh-obsessed folks from www.meatpaper.com, the "print magazine of art and ideas about meat".

Here at Eat and Let Die we take a strong interest in the foodblog industry and innovative uses of multimedia technology within our field. Today, let me draw your attention to Scanwiches, a brilliantly simple blog of scanned cross-sections of sandwiches. Above, a salami, cheddar, lettuce, roasted red pepper, oil and vinegar on a seeded roll.

We do try to refrain from the variations on ‘stacks-of-patties-on-a-burger’ here at Eat and Let Die, but this one won us over with the nice camera work, in full motion.
This baby is titled “The Whapper” by it’s ‘author’ and pushes about 4800 calories all by itself.
