These food-inspired pranks are so funny that you’ll laugh until you're hungry. Whether it’s unicorn meat or laxative donuts, you’ll just be glad that you didn’t eat them yourself.
Putting interesting ingredients in the food isn’t the only way to pull off a hilarious food prank. There is always the option of messing around with the employees at the drive-through. That is exactly what prankster Giorgio did when he placed his order by strumming on his guitar while singing what he wanted. ImprovEverywhere’s Food Court Musical took mall-goers by surprise by breaking out into song and dance (even the janitor was in on it).
Whether it’s messing with employees, customers or just ingredients, these food-inspired pranks will keep you chuckling for days.
