For the 50th anniversary of the Twinkie last year, Hostess released a cookbook full of recipes using Twinkies. It includes some weird stuff like a Twinkie Burrito and Twinkie Lasagna (some of the recipes are available here).
I think Perfetti Van Melle (the brilliant company behind Mentos) need to get their act together and make a Mentos cookbook. Maybe when I retire I’ll write one. Anybody have any ideas for Mentos recipes?

I’m a fan of the twinkie sushi.

twinkies need recipes because they suck (i’m a hostess cupcake girl).
mentos do not need recipes because they rock all by their lonesome.

The mentos people are actually trying to take advantage of this sudden attention to mentos from the online videos and whatnot by making a video contest. It’s at http://www.mentosgeysers.com if you want to check it out.
I do like the mentos cookbook idea though haha! Although, I can’t imagine what exactly you could do with them besides eat them as is?
