True, most of that stuff looks like a byproduct of school cafeteria dare contests.
As for non-food foods:
Celebrated French chef Pierre Gagnaire claims to have created the world's first entirely synthetic gourmet dish - a starter of jelly balls in apple and lemon flavours that are creamy on the inside and crisp on the outside.
The dish, which will debut in Hong Kong today, is a combination of ascorbic acid, glucose, citric acid and a few grams of 4-O-a-glucopyranosyl-D-sorbitol, a sugar substitute otherwise known as maltitol.
Mr Gagnaire, who has three Michelin stars, has worked for months with Hervé This, the founder of molecular gastronomy, according to the Times.

If you have a snout and walk on four legs, maybe.
....Why?
This. Chicken is delicious prepared in many different ways. The skin rarely tastes good and should almost always be removed before eating.
Feel free to add me on whatever network, it's always more fun to play with people than alone
Well you're right in that Pringles is only 42% potatoes and the rest is like rice flour or some such but that site is satire and Pringles are not made from old french fries.
That chef is insane. I find the fact that he is named Gagnaire humorously appropriate.
You all are frikkin crazy. Its like a garnish!!!!

Thank you spain for coming up with weird shit.
No, I am not really communist. Yes, it is weird that I use this name.
That's nothing. Here in the UK, Walkers have some flavours out on trial including Onion Bhaji, Fish and Chips, and Cajun Squirrel. I shit you not, squirrel flavoured crisps. Unless it's a euphemism.
Apparently the Fish and Chips ones taste more horrible than you'd think.
The skin's the thing...
I question the wisdom of making fish and potatoe flavoured potatoed snacks personally.
The Onion Bhaji ones are the nicest though, work got a box of them from the cash and carry a while back, didn't last a day.
Someone obviously didn't take it far enough. It needs to be a meta-pizza topped with mini-meta-pizzas.
Apparently they are called "Waff-FULLS". Bleh
I'm starting to think that stuffing and filling foods with other foods is the essence of fatness.

Made of Oreos. Not even Domino's is depraved enough to put Oreos on a regular pizza.
I hope.
That would be CRAZY. You'd have to deep-fry them first.
Rule 43:
If it's deep fried and edible some carnival in the South sells it.
lolz. Sometimes I think the South should be deep fried.
I'll be fine, just give me a minute, a man's got a limit, I can't get a life if my heart's not in it.
Everything that is wrong with American food is best summed up with American Cheese.
1. It isnt what it's label to be. That shit aint cheese.
2. It's individually wrapped in plastic. Americans has gotten so goddamn lazy that we cant even cut our own damn cheese.
3. Americans actually prefer this over real cheese. Nevermind how disgusting it is.
I has a shop
I think the big issue here is that you're eating terrible American food. Every country has their bastardized convenience-versions of real food.
If it's rubbery then you're doing it very, very wrong.
like removing the skin before cooking.

Your mind is better off not knowing. That said, a Butterfinger cake is even worse.
I saw this on Anthony Bourdain's show once. I have to say, there is an element of morbid curiosity that makes me want to hunt down the closest poutine dealer.
Even grosser, the way too popular "The Works" sold at New York Fries.
Fries topped with beef chili, sour cream, cheese sauce, onions, bacon, and then most people opt to add gravy on top.

880 calories before the gravy, with 42g of fat and 1110mg of sodium
Thats because in the USA you can't really get a proper sliced loaf to use in a UK Style sandwich. Unlike in the USA where most sandwiches come on rolls, in the UK they come on sliced bread. Sliced bread goes much better with butter, and we just like sandwhiches more. Honey sandwiches, Cheese sandwiches, Jam sandwhich, PB+J. You 'butter' (almost always margerine) the bread first, but not with a crazy amount or anything.
Thats a lot of calories, but I mean if you ate it as a whole meal it wouldn't be too bad. I mean, its no different from Chilli Fries, or even really from a loaded plate of Nachos.
a single 880 calorie meal is ridiculously large
edit: and as podly points out, those are 880 largely nutrition-free calories. part of a sodium rich diet, though
That is terrible! An 880 calorie meal should be giving you a shitload of nutrients, protein, fiber, etc. Chili Fries and a PLATEFUL of nachos are not a healthy comparison.
