    A number of years ago when cupcake shops were opening everywhere, there was this one called Mancakes that did “manly” cupcakes (think bacon and alcohol). I finally broke down one day and decided to try one. I went with the “Buffalo wings” cupcake which turned out to be what I guess was Frank’s Red Hot flavoured cake, topped with icing and some sort of crispy sprinkles (chicken skin?), and stuffed with (to my gagging surprise) blue cheese icing.

    I love hot wings, I love blue cheese dip, and cupcakes are just fine.

    But a buffalo wing cupcake has to be the nastiest concoction to be called a cupcake that I’ve ever tasted.

      The bakers were so preoccupied with whether or not they could, they didn’t stop to think if they should.

      Starts off in a universe completely separate from my own, and keeps veering further.

      Thank you for experiencing this so the rest of us don’t have to.

      That’s the greatest thing I’ve ever heard that I absolutely wouldn’t try.
