Bon Appetit recently put out a video showing how to make "gourmet" Cheetos at home. Be warned though: It really isn't easy bein' cheesy.

How McDonald's Fries are Made Plus What's in Them and Why
McDonald's recently put out a video where former Mythbuster co-host Grant Imahara gets a look at how McDonald's fries are made, complete from farm to processing plant to each restaurant (but they show it in reverse i.e. starting with the restaurant and ending up at the farm).
In case you've always wanted a behind-the-scenes look, here's how it goes:

Conan Visits Taco Bell HQ and Creates the O'Taco; Also Tries the New Quesalupa
Conan O'Brien recently paid a vist to Taco Bell headquarters along with his show's head IT guy, Chris Hayes, who also just happens to be a Taco Bell superfan.
Besides his normal (or abnormal) hilarity, Conan stretches his fertile comic mind in Taco Bell's test kitchen and comes up with the La Cona, a burrito caddy for when you're driving and eating, and the Irish Taco AKA the O'Taco (I've also been in Taco Bell's test kitchen and came up with this).

McDonald's Lets You See How Chicken McNuggets are Made

Neat! Oreo Posts Snack Hack for Dipping Oreos Neatly
Oreo recently posted a pretty sweet way to dip and serve Oreos on their Facebook page and Vine. They call it "The Mini Dipper" and you can check it out below.
Basically, the idea is to use the plunger of a French press coffee maker as a platform to raise and lower your Oreo cookies into milk.

News: Kate Upton and Snoop Dogg Push Hot Pockets in New Music Video
Kate Upton and Snoop Dogg have joined forces to shill for Hot Pockets as the brand goes all out with a full-length music video to promote their "new and improved" Hot Pockets sandwiches.
The video is a comedic remix of Biz Markie's 1989 hit single "Just a Friend (You Got What I Need)" entitled "You Got What I Eat." The set up is dream sequence stand-off between the new "premium" meats and the new buttery, seasoned crusts (#TeamMeat and #TeamCrust respectively). Snoop Dogg plays The Baker (of course) for Team Crust while Kate Upton falls asleep and dreams the whole sequence.

Neat! Beer Fridge Only Opens for Canadians
How do you increase your country's popularity abroad in one fell swoop? With beer of course! Molson Canadian had the brilliant idea of putting fridges (in Canadian red of course) full of beer at select locations all over Europe. The catch being they could only be opened by scanning a Canadian passport.

Around the World: Domino's UK Tests Flying Delivery
Domino's UK is testing the DomiCopter, a remote-controlled aircraft that can carry and deliver pizza without having to deal with mundane things like traffic and stop signs.
While it's more a marketing/publicity stunt than anything, the idea is a cool (if impractical) concept that appeals to one's inner geek.

Around the World: McDonald's Arabia Offers "The French" Burger
Offering a "taste of the world" is a common promotion for McDonald's. Not in the US, but globally, menus, or menu items, inspired by other locales and countries seem to pop up quite a lot. Currently, McDonald's Arabia is offering "The French," which is a hamburger patty in a black pepper sauce (like a pan sauce maybe?), served simply with slivered onions on a bun. I think they're going to a steak au poivre kind of feel.
Previously, McDonald's Arabia offered similarly-themed burgers with names like "The Asian," "The Mexican," and "The Turkish."

In case, you missed it, here are the fast food ad spots that ran during the Super Bowl (technically only the Taco Bell ad ran during the Super Bowl, the others ran before or after and are therefore "Big Game" ads).

Neat! Coca-Cola - "Sing for Me" Vending Machine
I have to say, Coca-Cola has their vending machine marketing down pat. Some of you might remember the "Hug Me" machine they placed at a university in Singapore earlier this year. Well, this holiday season, out in Sweden, Coca-Cola put a "Sing for Me" vending machine at the Royal Institute of Technology in Sweden during finals time.

First there was the Coke "Hug Me" machine and now this: unsuspecting train passengers stopping to buy a can of Coke Zero at a vending machine were prompted onscreen with an offer for a chance to win exclusive tickets for the latest James Bond movie, Skyfall. All they had to do was get to Platform 6... in 70 seconds.

News: Taco Bell - Free Tacos for Stolen Bases During the World Series
It's not unusual for free food items to be given at sporting event to the audience if certain benchmarks are hit, like if one team scores 100 points or if the home team wins. But Taco Bell is taking it a step further this year and spreading the love by offering the opportunity for a free Doritos Locos Tacos to everyone in the U.S. if any player steals a base during the Major League Baseball (MLB) World Series. They're calling it "Steal a Base, Steal a Taco."

Sunday Funny: Snoop Dogg Parodies Himself for Hot Pockets
In a marketing coup that's sure to generate buzz, Snoop Dogg shills for Hot Pockets with a parody of his hit song, "Drop It Like It's Hot," entitled "Pocket Like It's Hot." Instead of Pharell Williams, the parody, which comes complete with a music video, features comedian/rapper Andy Milonakis and Youtube personality/rapper DeStorm (pronounced "day-storm") Power as well as the Funkasaurus, WWE wrestler Brodius Clay (who used to work as one of Snoop Dogg's bodyguards).
The video plays up on some of the sparse aesthetics and motifs of the original version. Check it out below:

Around the World: Pizza Hut Australia - The Plank
Down in Australia, Pizza Hut is offering a new, limited-time 94-cm (~37 inches) extra long pizza, they're calling "The Plank." Now, The Plank is not actually a 94-centimeter pizza, but rather 3 deep-pan, slab pizzas whose lengths add up to 94 centimeters and are fitted into a 94-centimeter box.
