Circuitry Snacks from Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories

The guys at Evil Mad Scientist Laboratories have figured out a way that even I could learn about circuitry and might walk away with a bit of knowledge: make edible models of actual electronic bits. Nice.

Now all we need is for somebody to figure out how to make them work for real, sort of like a mad cross between Lego Mindstorms and Willy Wonka.

Japan Has Kit Kats of Many Colors and Flavors

Maccha Milk Kit Kat from Japan

One thing you have to give the Japanese credit for: they'll experiment with some crazy flavors of things. Slashfood points out that Kit Kats have exploded over there.

Inventor Spot mentions several flavors, including the one pictured, which is green tea with milk. There's also a "Red Azuki Bean" variation, as well as cherry-flavored white chocolate. Rinkya Blog makes mention of kiwi and orange, to name a couple. Japan Newbie from a while back showed packaging for melon and passion fruit.

They point out the Wikipedia article as well, which lists a crapload of different varieties, including pumpkin and white chocolate with maple syrup.

And here in America we get...chocolate. White chocolate sometimes. Dark chocolate if we're lucky. Bah.

Caffeinated Jell-O shots

Back when I used to drink, Jell-O shots were a fun and tasty way of consuming alcohol.

Granted, back when I used to drink, there were few ways to consume alchohol that I did not consider fun and tasty, but alas, those were the days.

Now, just in time for our American readers' July 4th celebrations: a recipe for creating buzz-worthy Jell-O shots is here, with the option to throw in some B-12 for good measure. Excellent! Fireworks and caffeine--two great tastes that taste great together!

Twinkies in Space

Two things:

One. Would someone please mash this commercial up with the trailer for Alien? Pretty please?

Two. Watch closely at the end...where they playing spaceman in a Porta Potty or is it just me?

And after the break, while we're talking scary-retro commercials, watch Fruit Pie the Magician offer up his smaller, non-sentient cousins for the slaughter. Fun!
