Of course, it’s Wednesday, so it’s time for another picture of food you wouldn’t want to eat:

Here we have Chernobyl cake to go with your possibly radioactive punch.
Think of this as help for your diet. You wouldn’t want to eat after looking at this stuff, would you?

Just because it’s New Year’s Eve, don’t think you’re not getting by without a horrid food item.
And can you think of a better way to celebrate the festive date than by showing a party spread? I couldn’t, which shows you how much eggnog I’ve had. The answer, actually, is “none,” because dang it, I’m lactose intolerant. But that doesn’t stop me from showing you a bucket of something the cat coughed up!

And let’s not forget bugs on sticks. Yummy!
So, what do you think this looks like?

For our next-to-last What Is It? Wednesday of the year, we present Devil’s Tower!

Don’t forget the sputum sauce!
Hope you have much more appetizing food planned for the holidays.

If it’s Wednesday, it must be time to look at something appallingly unappetizing.
For some reason this reminds me to make sure I’m up-to-date on my pneumonia shot.

The holidays are a perfect time to infilct your friends and family with all manner of disturbing foodstuffs.
This was billed as a fruitcake, but I suspect it’s Spock’s brain, surrounded by alien creatures.
What do YOU think it is?

I think I may have seen this delight on an episode of Jekyll.
Either that, or there’s just not enough meat on that gristle. I’m not sure which.
What do you think it is?

We’re on an abbreviated posting schedule for the holidays, so What Is It? Wednesday arrives a day early.
Of course, it’s a turkey. Nothing says “home for the holidays,” though, like a turkey with trees growing from under its legs. Let’s not forget to cover exposed ends of the legs with tiny, frilled chef hats. Garnish with monocular alien fruit. And would you look at that cavity? It’s a gaping maw guaranteed to give the kiddies nightmares for weeks to come. More meat for dad, then, who is both a leg and breast man at Thanksgiving!
Happy Turkey Day!

If it’s Wednesday, it must be time to present another unidentifiable, unappetizing food photograph.
There’s only one word for this one: EXTERMINATE!
Perhaps you have another word or two. Let us know in the comments.

Welcome to another edition of What Is It? Wednesday! Yes, it’s time to take a look at another item masquerading as food and determine what it’s really supposed to be.
Submitted for your approval:

Yummy treats, or the November, 1957 output of the elevator button factory? Or something else? Let us know in the comments.

Well. I’m not sure what this is supposed to be, other than that it appears to look vaguely rude.
So, what do YOU think it is?
