To the seriously food-obsessed, anything can seem like a snack. For example, yellow sponges can evoke thoughts of Swiss cheese, and tennis balls can inspire dreams of green apples.

But there are some inedible objects that really are meant to resemble food, including these buildings that our buddies at Urlesque rounded up. Why? Well, uh, who wouldn't want to enter a building that looks like it was made of a wall of bacon?

Canstruction is charity that invites designers to create works of art using--you guessed it--cans. The creations range from giant hotdogs to castles to Snoopy. Some of these constructions look truly amazing, and not to mention highly unstable (my personal favorite is the shark jumping out of the water). All the cans are donated to food banks in New York.
