Dubious Fast-Food Fashion

Last week we already wrote about the donut inflatable: the ultimate summer must-have for foodies. But there’s more. How about the French-fry leggings? Or nail polish with the flavor of fried chicken? Indulge your heart’s desire with FavorFlav’s selection of dubious fast-food fashion items.

Kentucky Fried Nail Polish

Kentucky Fried Chicken takes its slogan Finger Lickin’ Good very seriously indeed. The fast-food chain recently launched edible nail polish with the flavor of roasted chicken. The limited editions come in two flavors and colors: the ‘original recipe’ in nude and the ‘hot & spicy’ in bright orange. The nail polish is currently only available at KFC locations in Hong Kong. Perhaps that’s for the best. We’d rather lick our fingers clean after a bucket of ‘real’ fried chicken.

Pizza at Your Feet

Pizza fans, take note. Following the chicken waffle- and coffee sneaker, Nike is soon coming out with a genuine pizza sneaker. With these kicks on your feet, pepperoni and melted cheese will greet you all day long. We wonder whether you should really be so happy about that. But then again: love for pizza runs deep, we understand. More of a slip-on person? Then go for the hysterical all-over pizza-slice print version from Vans.

Donut Galore

Was growing a bikini-ready body your resolution again this year, and did you fail once more? Make the best of a bad situation and celebrate summer in style in a donut bikini or one-piece swimsuit. Then shamelessly nestle your derrière in an inflatable donut and no one can touch you. And while we’re at it: complete this questionable look with a donut beach blanket and a donut Frisbee.

The French-Fry Leggings

We don’t turn our noses up at poutine – the Canadian version of a kapsalon – or a delicious steak sandwich with fries. But there are limits, and as far as we’re concerned, that limit has been reached with the French-fry leggings. Yes, you read that right: French-fry leggings. Available in every conceivable variation. The leggings with a poutine print are appalling, but these – featuring a random photo of a random dog and fries – really take the cake. We say no, no and no again.
