World's Most Expensive Dessert, US$14,500
Contributed by: Billy
Apart from the Million Dollar Ice Cream Cone (which you can't eat anyway), could this be the World's Most Expensive Dessert? It's the "Fortress Stilt Fisherman Indulgence". Here's a tip - don't swallow the 80 carat aquamarine stone nestled on the handmade chocolate stilt fisherman, might make for uncomfortable trips to the bathroom...

Moe's Southwest Grill's National Burrito Eating Contest '06
Contributed by: Billy
Apparently these Burritos are huge! At the 2006 Moe's Southwest Grill's National Burrito Eating Contest, they were competing for a "Chopper", not the flying kind, but a damn fine looking 2 wheeled version. Not a bad effort for Amateur Competitive Eaters!

Look at this Fking Fruit!
Contributed by: Billy
Never have I heard so much passion for a piece of fruit! I've got no idea what this fruit is, or whether it's a 'shop job, but man the text cracks me up! And it does look pretty bad-ass. I mean, if it's the size of someone's head, and it was thrown at you, it'd do some serious damage! Warning: Mild fking swearing ahead!

Look at this fking fruit! This fruit is fking hardcore. It's covered in spikes, holy sht!

Alexandra and the Giant Pumpkin
Contributed by: Billy
Unlike James and the Giant Peach, this is actually real. At this years National Amateur Gardening show, a contestant brought along a 200kg (440lb) Pumpkin to enter into one of the 27 categories of competition. Another contestant entered a 15ft Carrot! Pumpkin soup anyone?

With record breaking rainfall and devastating floods, you might have thought our dismal summer would have pretty much scuppered this year's harvest. But judging from the whopping vegetables on display at the National Amateur Gardening show, the weather has not entirely put a dampener on the year's crop. One pumpkin entered in the UK's National Giant Vegetable Championships in Shepton Mallet, Somerset, weighed in at 200kg.

Contributed by: Billy
The McNugget McMaster would be proud of this attempt! It's Food Challenge Friday, and the contestant is attempting to down 20 nuggets in 2 minutes. Will he have what it takes to beat the challenge?
From: http://www.foodchallengefriday.com/?p=9
After two very unsuccessful attempts at this challenge, Joe’s cousin Nick steps up to the plate. Nick the man-mountain shows promise at first sight. Prior to attempting this challenge he ate about 50 wings, 2 cheeseburgers, 8 taquitos, a half a dozen hard boiled eggs, 1 package of shredded cheese, a cow, and a deer. Yum, love that venison.

Original McDonalds Sign
Contributed by: Billy
Here's a blast from the past. One of the original McDonalds signs, still in it's original glory. It's even got "Speedee", the original mascot that reflected their "Speedee Service System", and back when they could only afford the one arch!

Green Bay, WI; the sign is still lit at night:

Like your Oranges? Perhaps you need one of these. It's a table shaped as an Orange Slice made completely from resin. Looks good enough to eat! Shame they're sold out of them though!

Hamburglar Touch
Contributed by: Billy
Kudos to the Hamburglar, that's a mighty fine stack of burgers he's got there. But the thought of the Hamburglar touching me gives me nightmares....
From: http://youtube.com/watch?v=nv3y4ceOn1Q
Mcdonalds commercial from 1985 with Grimace, Ronald and Hamburglar. Hamburglar dreams that he can turn anything into a hamburger by touching it. in his dream, ronald warns him to not touch grimace, and he touches his face ending the dream. Great stuff
