- Title: “Cheeto Man”
- Media: Cheetos, obviously. Or, at least, one Cheeto. Something else, certainly, but I have no idea what.
- Submitted by: C. Murray
- C. Murray submitted these photos with the note "Cheeto Man in the first image ... is 100% unretouched ..., Cheeto at the beach with friends is pure fantasy!:. That's good to know. If I thought that life-sized Cheetos were out, roaming wild in the world, I'd be simultaneously hungry & terrified. Either way, I'd don a pith helmet and begin tracking the legendary beasts immediately.
- Title: “Spooky Bread Face”
- Media: Bread + Halloween Spirit.
- Submitted by: Anon.
- Inside another seemingly "perfect for Halloween" submission comes... SPOOKY BREAD FACE! It's said that you if you speak his name 3 times in front of a mirror at midnight, SPOOKY BREAD FACE will appear to you.
- Title: “‘Yoshi/Bowser Love Child’ Tomato”
- Media: Super Mario Bros., Romantic interludes between heroes & villains.
- Submitted by: Katherine L.
- Katherine submitted this photo with only a description of a "smiling tomato;" but we know the truth. This tomato is the love child of an unspeakable 8-bit three way between Yoshi, Bowser and one of those piranha plants that hangs out in the sewers/pipes throughout the world of Super Mario Bros.
- Title: “Dracula Pepper”
- Media: Green bell pepper. Thirst for blood.
- Submitted by: Sarah N. (Ohio)
- Sarah was innocently making herself the most delicious of all foods, pizza, when she cut into a bell pepper to use as one of her toppings. Much to her surprise, she found this likeness of one of the most reviled creatures of the night: a vampire. { Gasp! } She promptly snapped this photo as evidence and, as far as we're aware, was never heard from again.
- Title: “The Taco That Eats YOU”
- Media: Taco. Self-Awareness. Hunger for vengeance.
- Submitted by: Amy K.
- Amy K. warns "eat up, before your taco eats you!" after she found this horrid visage staring up at her from her dinner plate.
- Title: “Cheshire Smiley Meat”
- Media: Soup. Meat. Famous Feline.
- Submitted by: Ryan R.
- Ryan's coworker found this smiling meat staring back at him from his mall food court soup. Unsettling, to be sure, but really this meat was only revealing itself to be the latest incarnation of the Cheshire Cat.
- Title: “Return of the Donut Monsters”
- Media: Donuts. Muppet-like googly eyes. The ability to breed and/or replicate.
- Submitted by: Jim T.
- After Jim discovered this first Donut Monster, he returned to his local bakery to find yet another, similar creature had taken up residence in the shop. Fearing that he someone may have opened up a portal to a donut-based parallel universe, Jim snatched up this latest creature to add to his collection. He then did the only thing that one could imagine doing: he used them to create an updated version of Grant Wood's "American Gothic."
- Title: “Shrek-ato”
- Media: Potato. Ogre DNA.
- Submitted by: Donna R.
- Donna presents this potato from a Beijing supermarket. To me, it's a toss up as to whether it represents Shrek or Sloth from "The Goonies."
- Title: “Vampire Pie”
- Media: Pie. Lust for blooooooood.
- Submitted by: Amanda R.
- Amanda brought home what she thought was merely a delicious Marie Calendar's Triple Berry Pie to find this spooky, blood-thirsty creature lurking within the simple cardboard box. Obviously, the pie had recently fed on a victim -- or, perhaps, it's a regular pie that just finished reading the 'Twilight' series and got a bit carried away.
