Alright, this post has been waiting in the wings for a few days because I couldn't decide whether I was proud to identify myself with the country that developed this, or wanted to drop my shaking head into my hands behind my laptop like I did with the pizza cone.
Apparently, the Korean fast food chain that has arrived in the US via New York and New Jersey, BBQ Chicken, has come up with a new way to make fast food even faster for you. The Col Pop is scary convenient, and by "scary convenient," what I really mean is, "scary." The top of the cup holds popcorn chicken, while the bottom of the cup holds your soda, and keeps both at the optimum temperature. Technology-wise, that's kind of neat. Eating-wise, I'm not sure that this is all that convenient.
The guys over at Serious Eats did a test drive of the Col Pop and though I couldn't figure out what the final conclusion was, it seems that it wasn't all that bad. I'd just like to see them try the spaghetti-version of Col-Pop.
