#196: Turducken!

Have you heard of this Frankenstein Monster of the culinary world?

Are we not fat enough in North America?

I don’t mean to be blunt, but this creation was designed to feed the obesity epidemic, not help fight it. A turducken is…

  • A de-boned chicken stuffed into…
  • A de-boned duck, stuffed into…
  • A  de-boned turkey.

Seriously.

Apparently you can leave the bones intact if you’re feeling adventurous. I’m sure this dish is delicious, but the concept blows my mind! Why not wrap the turducken in cotton candy and dip it in chocolate?

My disrespect may enrage some champions of this new holiday trend, but I’m sure they can console themselves with a new creation…

La Turducken!!

  • Just wrap a turducken in noodles and sauce.
  • Bake into a lasagna!
  • Have the defibrillator ready and the ambulance standing by.

Happy holiday eating, everyone!

  1. The one thing most people don’t realize is our food is engineered. I don’t necessarily mean genetically altered though that happens too, but engineered so that the combination of ingredients creates endorphic responses in our bodies to addict us to eating.

    If you haven’t yet, check out the documentary Super Size Me by Morgan Spurlock. It’s frightening.

    Turducken just seems crazy to me.

  2. This is super gross! OMG, gross. Sick, yuck, what are people thinking. Boo on the turducken!

  3. My goodness, I was hoping my boyfriend’s family was stoned when they told us they wanted one of these for Christmas this year… It is a sad statement on whoever invented this monstrosity and their obvious lack of social life or contact with the outside world.

    Thank you, Hook, for proving to me the failure that humanity has become. Also, very glad it is in the Book of Terrible! Haha

  4. I’ve never eaten one of those. It looks creepy to me. Wonder who thought that up? I say a bored chef who had one to many Irish Coffees. A friend at some of this one year and she claimed it was delicious. Who knows?

  5. Hey man, I dunno about you, but I love my poultry stuck into the asses of other poultry. It’s like a Russian nesting doll of birds that….yeah, it looks and sounds disgusting.

  6. Thats sounds amazing.
    I wonder if it will work the opposite way.

  7. It sounds like some dish a king would have in the Middle Ages.

  8. Seriously.

    I mean… seriously. People actually eat this??? I mean don’t get me wrong… I would love to see this in person. It just baffles me the things that the west is pumping out these days!!

  9. The final wrapping should be an iron lung – add a bit of texture to the meat
