Insane Cupcakes


cupcake-blog5-17-07.jpg

These cupcakes have the most icing I've ever seen on a cupcake.


If you look closely at one of them, you can see it's actually a cupcake eating a cookie. It's the first time I've ever seen a piece of food eating another piece of food. The cupcake is actually hungry. It's carb-on-carb cannibalism.


I'm not that crazy about cupcakes. But I love cookies, so I bought two of 'em. They were at a shop inside Penn Station in NY. I had just taken New Jersey Transit there. Then I got on a subway up to 30 Rock.


I ate one on the subway. Then ate the other one in the writer's room at TGS. Liz was pretty grossed out by it. Lutz was pissed because I didn't bring one for him. But I said to him, "That's what you get for taking a cab. You miss out on Penn Station cupcakes". Josh thought maybe he could make that cupcake a character. Thankfully Liz & Pete shot that down immediately. Kenneth the Page was sad because he said that the cupcake was "Cookie Monster" from "Sesame Street" or something - some old kids show that he loves - I'm not sure which one. Say what you want about Kenneth. He loves TV. Jenna thought the cupcake should be illegal because it portrays a violent image and it's geared towards children. Tracy & Dr. Spacemen agreed that there's nothing wrong with violent images & children's food. I had no idea my cupcake would cause such a stir. I'm definitely going to bring some in next week, maybe it'll waste more time at work again!

Much tastier photo than the last one!

Where does the cupcake fall on the food-foodchain? Where do these cupcakes get these cookies---do they hang out at the Red Cross and steal blood cookies?

Food cannibalism is nothing new. In fact, Kraft seems to encourage it by selling processed American cheese food. Apparently this is what we feed cheese.

Is TGS just teeming with food issues? Liz & Jack both eat their pain, Dr. Leo prescribes chili burgers, and you give us grisly cookie murders and culinary abortions like your unfortunate beans & rice. The fridge is a cold, unfeeling place, Frank! (That said, check out my food blog!)

Holly, I love Pickles you can pickle almost anything and it tastes great.

I don't know from pacman cupcakes tho.

Tixie just sent a photo of her hands, Im a little bit freaked out she has the hands of a murderer. They look like scared linguica sausage with a french polish.
She said its cause she was a tassel puller in Nebraska for three summers. I dont know, she does have great ankles and elbows. She is stilla mystery.
What would you do?
