Hot-dog roasting via H.P. Lovecraft

Now that grilling season is here, I'd thought I'd tell you about a unique piece of hot-dog paraphernalia I came across the other day. Not satisfied with the capacity of one company's weenie roaster that's frankly quite phallic, blogger bbum had them create a macabre device that can roast several dogs at a time.

Even though it looks more like the Punisher, this device was modeled after horror writer H.P. Lovecraft's Cthulhu, a tentacled undersea demigod worshipped by cults and feared by mortal men. I wonder whether cooking seafood sausages on this contraption would incur some form of primeval wrath. [via Boing Boing]
