Just so meaty.

Just so meaty.

I really don’t know what this girl’s last name is, but I know she is awesome.  How do I know?  Because she made a friggin’ dress out of meat.  And not just any meat:  salami!  Oh and bacon.

Apparently she did this for an Aqua Teen Hunger Force party and was supposed to be the shapeless (and hilarious) lump of meat known as Meatwad.

The dress itself isn’t exactly shapeless and looks good enough to eat.  Check out all the pictures here.

There’s not much else I can say about this, except that it is a wonderful use of meat that would have been even better if it had been eaten afterwards.

For making a dress out of meat, when you could have used any other meat-looking material, Jia, you are a true Unvegan Hero!
