Awesome Food

Adding even more charred mammal flesh to those summer picnics, this Meatball Grill Basket satisfies a need we didn’t know we had, but now do–the drool on our keyboard says it all.

The Beanzawave brings us one buttprint closer to never leaving our cubicles again: it’s a USB-powered microwave that uses finely tuned cellphone radio frequencies to cook food.

V9 of ThinkGeek’s vaunted Mega Caffeine Candy Sampler is a grab bag of pick-me-ups, with names that sound like sound effects: Foosh Mints, Jolt Gum, and Chargers Espresso Beans.

With stomach-turning foods such as BBQ Worm Crisps, Scorpion Vodka and Oven-Baked Tarantula, Edible.com seems anything but; still, it’s the perfect shop for culinary adventurers.

This Pac-Man Sour Set combines two geek loves with pellet- and ghost-shaped sour candies; we particularly like the Pac-Man tin, which dispenses pellets like an 8-bit pharmacist.

We frankly want these PSP Sours simply for the PSP-shaped cool metal tin; they’ll come in blue screen (raspberry) or red screen (cherry) and can be preordered by the dozen for $32.

Essentially an ice cream maker on steroids, the NitroCream N2-G4 is hand-built and capable of making gelato, frozen yogurt and sorbet (in addition to ice cream); it uses liquid nitrogen.

Omaha Steaks is bucking the recession, bull rider style: for $10,000, they’ll fly out a chef and culinary staff to serve up to eight of your guests a five course meal fit for an cattle baron.

Baconnaise’s concept just seems so wrong that we can’t help but love it: it’s mayonnaise that is flavored to taste like bacon; the spread comes from the makers of Bacon Salt.
