Food tattoos – When cravings become permanent

There’s no doubt about it that I love food. I thoroughly enjoy consuming it, preparing it, looking at it, playing with it, sharing it, reading about it, learning about it, feeling it, dreaming about it, imagining myself being it…

Er.

Anyway, these people took food to a whole new level by tattooing variations on their bodies. Continuing the QJ tattoo tradition, here’s a few quirky food tattoos. You can find tons more at the link, though. There are perfect vegetables, restaurant logos, an amazing hot dog, a mixer, pie, bacon, shrimp, kiwis, candy….so much there!

But here’s a quick taste for you before you go over there:


Awww, milk and cookies!


Brains and eggs?


Ooo, so angry!


What a perfect little cupcake…and skulls.


A butcher’s cheat sheet.


“Sacred Heart of Deliciousness.” The owner of this one actually posted on the page that she’s gone vegan and doesn’t even eat half of these things now, but still loves to bake, etc!

Parakeet Gone Bananas

Actually, this image’s real name is “IMG_4954” but one of the comments on it claimed that the parakeet had gone bananas, and that seems much more suitable. I feel strangely sad for the bananas who are forced to watch. :(

Spaghetti and Meatballs Lookalike Cake

Many of you have probably already seen this by now, but I can’t resist sharing it again anyway. It seemed to have swept the web when Ciao Chow Linda first posted it. I saw it on blogs, cooking websites, and even forums that had absolutely nothing at all to do with cooking.

Who can blame people, though? It’s an absolutely amazing looking cake.

Growing up, my “special birthday dinner” choice was always spaghetti. I loved it, but my mom doesn’t at all, so I rarely had it….except for getting it on my birthday. She’s always made our cakes from scratch and into something really special, too (I’ll share pictures with you guys later). I no longer get the birthday cakes, but I wonder if I could talk her into trying to make one for an upcoming birthday. At least she wouldn’t have to eat real spaghetti!
