For me, there's no sweeter sound than hearing the word "giant" and "junk food product" in the same sentence.
We truly live in a time of food innovation. There are no heights that we cannot reach. If you can dream it, there is a food scientist somewhere that can probably make it a reality.
I met the grandson of the guy who invented a famous pasta sauce company the other day, turns out his grandad was from Bristol, UK, not Italy, but who cares... we are living in a food renaissance!
Let's celebrate this by getting a heads up on some of the most exciting new food products to hit the shelves.
Twinkie-flavored coffee

S'mores caddy
Target sells this awesome s'mores caddy for your next camping trip. Before you get too excited, just know that the actual s'mores materials are not included.But it has sections ready for ya.
via: Target
It perfectly fits your chocolate bars and graham crackers and has a whole carton you can fill with marshmallows. This is way better than trying to reach into a sticky bag while propping your stick up so it doesn't fall into the fire.Stuffed Puffs
Speaking of s'mores, the marshmallow powers that be decided to make your s'mores-making lives super easy with these marshmallows that are stuffed with chocolate. Heck yeah, I'm all about this! That chocolate gets melty, the marshmallow gets charred... My mouth is watering just thinking about it.Coffee gummies
This genius company wants to be able to give you the jolt of a cup of coffee without having to drink the hot stuff. Sometimes, you're in for a long car trip and you can't afford the liquid if you know what I mean. That's where coffee gummy bears come in! The next few are out of this world...Disney treats
Disney World is known for its wack-a-doo treat offerings, and this insane Minnie Mouse milkshake is no exception. I don't know how you could eat this and then go on rides, but that's just me.Caramel-popcorn-coated churro
Can I get a "Heck yes!" for this insanely delicious-looking churro? Disney knows what's up when it comes to sweet treats. But the latest thing available at Epcot that has people actually losing their minds is...Boozy popsicles
That's right! There are a few places that serve booze around Disney World, and Epcot is one of them. They are now serving these delectable-looking boozy popsicle treats in a variety of flavors, so on a hot summer day in the park, you can simultaneously cool down and get drunk! What could be better?Reese's Ice Cream Cake
Reese's has released its fair share of peanut butter/chocolate innovations, but this ice cream cake might, well, take the cake! It looks absolutely delicious.Spreadable avocado
OK, so this one might be a joke, but I could totally see a real company trying to release this. The next one also seems like a joke, but I assure you, it's not...KFC gravy candle
The Gravy Candle. Yes. A KFC Gravy scented candle. And you could win one, enter here - https://t.co/htHfjavCZ4 https://t.co/IKudhQi3Em— KFC UK & Ireland (@KFC UK & Ireland)1548064800.0
Champagne ice cubes
Now, this is an idea I can get behind! The newest brunch cocktail trend is to make ice cubes out of champagne. This way, your ice won't water down your mimosa...it will make it stronger instead!Cakes for one
You may look at Duncan Hines' cake mix kits for one and think, "Huh, you'd have to be a really lonely person to buy that?" Or you may look at them and think, "Yes. This is for me. I like. I want." If you're in the first camp, your mind might change when you see the next one...Unicorn cake for one
The colors! The sparkles! How could anyone resist this cake unicorn cake mix kit for one? I want one right now, and it's 10 in the morning!Watermelon Freeze
Summer arrived early. The #WatermelonFreeze is back. 🍉 https://t.co/vRz8aoBZ8r— Taco Bell (@Taco Bell)1555031363.0

Chocolate penis

Never fear! I know you've always wanted to send a chocolate penis to your friends, and now you can. I personally really love the floral box it comes in.Chocolate anus

Bread pillow
via: Amazon
I don't think I've ever wanted anything more in my entire life. This giant pillow looks just like a huge fluffy French bread roll. I've often thought about the perfect food to sleep on, and a fluffy roll might be it.Dole Whip margarita
.@WaltDisneyWorld's new Dole Whip frozen margarita is a boozy version of the sweet treat https://t.co/IiNFSeLWTl— Insider (@Insider)1554833708.0
Birthday Cake Cool Whip
Does this Cool Whip actually taste like birthday cake? Well it's pink and has colored sprinkles throughout, so it doesn't really matter, does it? But people love it.Kranch
Inbox: NEW CONDIMENT ALERT: Ketchup + Ranch = HEINZ KRANCH is here. https://t.co/3G5FyEVpH6— Laura Hayes (@Laura Hayes)1554319291.0
they also released Mayocue, an unthinkable combo of mayonnaise and BBQ sauce that begs the question, "Why? Who does that?" and Mayomust, a mayo/mustard combo that makes more sense but still grosses me out.
Impossible Whopper
Impossible Whopper was excellent. Thanks for picking STL! @ImpossibleFoods @BurgerKing https://t.co/cDmcX2I4K7— Bamfish (@Bamfish)1554147773.0
Boozy lollipops
I love lollipops. And I would love them even more if they were boozy, like this one. This is a whole lollipop kit, complete with sweet gel and sugary powder, so it's basically like boozy Fun Dip, and I am here for it! The next one is also great...Boozy gummies
These yummy gummy candies are filled with booze, so you can snack and get wasty at the same time! Yas please!Peanut butter pump
This is a perfect innovation and I can't believe we haven't thought of it sooner. You could pump peanut butter straight onto your bread or your apple with this thing. It's annoying to have to use a knife every time you want some of the good stuff.Nightfood
This is a little bit genius but also kind of scary. It's an ice cream brand that is also a sleep aid. So you can eat your after-dinner treat and it will put you right to sleep.Pancizza

Mac and cheese bucket
via: Costco
Costco sells this giant bucket of mac and cheese that contains 180 servings. And people say it's actually quite yummy. So there you go. That's the world we live in.Ranch keg
This ranch dressing keg is wildly unnecessary, but kind of awesome https://t.co/7iz9okorud— Esquire (@Esquire)1510085404.0
