The Chocolate Eclair Hot dog

Sweet and meat together at last

The Chocolate Eclair Hot dog

As soon as you see it, you ask - why did it take until now for this to happen? Two things that were forever destined to collide together in beautiful harmony: hot dog and chocolate eclair.

Maple Lodge Farms in Canada are the people responsible for this incredible creation, which they unveiled at the Canada National Exhibition: previous food mashups there have included deep-fried butter and the Krispy Kreme Hamburger.

But this tops it for us: it looks so right, yet so wrong. We're off to our local bakery and butcher to make one for ourselves now...

He started out life as a movie writer for numerous (now defunct) magazines and soon found himself online - editing a gaggle of gadget sites, including TechRadar, Digital Camera World and Tom's Guide UK. At Shortlist you'll find him mostly writing about movies and tech, so no change there then.
