      It is, look at the hand, the seal of the bags, the tags on the shelf in the background. All of them are exactly the same in each photo

            You can cross your eyes to spot the differences or similarities of two almost identical pictures if they are beside eachother. e.g. sometimes there are “spot the 10 differences” pictures next to each other on the back of cornflakes boxes. I loved solving those because it’s easy if you cross your eyes just like when you try to see a “magic eye” picture.

                I think it’s kind of like those 3D pictures where if you let your eyes unfocus and then slowly refocus, both images line up. I did it and it’s really weird since the colors are so different, but it looks like two images of hotdogs, one on top of the other.

    I ate the onion - these abominations aren’t real - they’re an invention by Justin Things on Instagram.

    Just when you thought the US was stretching the definition of “food” to its breaking point…

    Edit: look at the wall-e chair fatty motherfuckers downvoting me for saying that a pig raised in a cell in a factory, pumped full of hormones and antibiotics, whose soft tissue was water-blasted off by an undocumented immigrant child, before being converted to a slurry, mixed with a load of preservatives, colouring, flavours, and other bullshit to turn that meat blue, and make it taste like an entirely fuctitious “blue razzberry” (which is distinct from a raspberry), then extruded into a plastic skin is pushing the boundaries of food. I’m guessing the expiry on this product (I don’t think they can legally call it meat) is months away.

      I want you to know that you’re being downvoted not by these imaginary fatties, but because you can’t identity an obvious joke and are whining about downvotes

        Thanks - I appreciate you trying to explain it to this idiot, but I’m still not sure I get it… These dogs are a very real thing (other than the ho-ho-hotdogs I assume).

          Are they actually? There was a relatively convincing comment that pointed out that hand in each photo is identical which means it’s probably photoshopped.

            Actually no - after looking a bit further, I ate the onion on that one - they’re a fabrication by the Instagram user Justin Things. I was sure I saw the freedom franks on shelves around July 4th in Utah a few years back, but stand corrected.

            That’s not to say there’s not a good number of people trying to make this stuff, but there’s a big difference between that and it being a marketed product.

              I just assumed they were real until I saw the comment, as far as crazy American foods go I’ve seen crazier!

    I tried sausages that tasted like cardboard. Even half a bottle of ketchup that was poured on the sausage did not improve the taste.

    I think that drink-flavored “sausages” will just be candies that look like sausages. But such products are usually produced in limited quantities as holiday jokes.
