Cake-Infused Hot Dogs

The Twilly Beef Hot Dog Uses a Twinkie as the Bun

Invented by the restaurant Pittsburgh Willy's in Arizona, US, the unbelievable Twilly hot dog fuses a beef hot dog with a Twinkie cake to form an outrageous sweet and savory hot dog creation.

A creative food combination to say the least, the Twilly is not for the faint of heart. Pittsburgh Willy created the newest bizarre hot dog by covering a beef hot dog with a Twinkie cake to simulate the a traditional bread bun. The food craziness doesn't stop there; on top of the beef hot dog is a mix of bacon, peanut better and jelly toppings. A mix of both savory and sweet foods, the Twilly could send your tummy into a serious stomach ache. While the combination of hot dogs, Twinkies, peanut butter and jelly sounds mighty weird, I think it would actually taste surprisingly delicious.
