SNACK TIME: PA kitchen accessories, Candwiches, Paula Deen rides on stuff, Mouse Pizza, Red Velvet Pancakes ... and Breast Milk Ice Cream?

- It's pretty much a no-brainer that Etsy is truly an emporium for handmade novelties. That cutting board shaped like the state of Pennsylvania is so cute! And A. Heirloom custom-carves every other state! Also, the funny high-heeled pilgrim boot that is Italy! And Long Island! Don't you want one?

buzzfeed.com

- Buzzfeed has compiled the 30 most WTF-inducing canned food items out there. Among the many questionable items are canned PB&J sammies, cream of possum (not sure I'm buying it), whole chickens and some really gnarly-looking gray squid. - I don't really watch Paula Deen, but I do know that she's got a sweet Southern drawl and calls us nicknames like "puddin'" and "sugar." None of this really matters what does matter is that photo of her riding on the Lochness monster, or on a stick of butter, or on Harry Potter. Paula Deen riding things. Click click click click. Laughlaughlaughlaughlaugh. - Ew. I'm sorry for any of you who have eaten at Nina's Bella Pizzeria in Upper Darby, the establishment whose owner planted mice in neighboring pizza shops. With this kind of tactic, there's probably a reason why he wanted to sabotage the competition. If your pizza's not all that, people will like it more if you sneak rodents on everyone else's. It'll work. Yup. - OK, let's not talk about disgusting things anymore. Let's talk about divine, delicious, decadent things. Things like these Red Velvet Pancakes. Ugggghhhhhhh. With whipped cream cheese on top. Hello? How is this even fair? Ughhhhhhh. I will just whine at the photo until I get to eat these by the millions. - Back to disgusting topics! Or maybe not? Clearly not everyone thinks so, but I'm sure we can all agree that this is a little much, right? London's Icecreamists are churning breast milk ice cream yes, of the human variety. The descriptive term of "free range" attached to it is just hilarious. I sure hope I'm free range. The stuff's called "Baby Gaga," MSNBC reports, and translates from pounds to $23 a serving. (Apparently, it was just pulled from the store over health concerns!) Dear readers, what are your thoughts on this?
