With an animated show in the works, several novelty shirts and of course the game itself, the Angry Birds Cookbook was bound to come into fruition at some point.
Surprisingly, the Angry Birds Cookbook doesn't contain any recipes pertaining to chicken or pork. Instead, it's filled with various dishes that involve eggs, which is clearly a nod to the avians. But of course, there are other varieties of cuisine to choose from, including burritos and soufflé. There are over 40 recipes to choose from in the book, ranging from omelettes to eggs Benedict. The pages are filled with colorful illustrations as visual aids with additional images that features the beloved characters from the game.
With the Angry Birds Cookbook released, I wonder what's next for these avians.
