You’ll never look at a corn dog the same way.

Long a fair and carnival food staple, corn dogs have undergone a shocking makeover at the hands of Kyle Marcoux, aka the Vulgar Chef. In what appears to be ideal Halloween party fare, hot dogs are surrounded by a batter of red velvet cake, then sprinkled with powdered sugar.

More of a breakfast fan? Thrillist reports that the Vulgar Chef has also created a corn dog made with a blueberry pancake batter.

The shocking image of the bright red corn dogs have gone viral, with fans and critics sounding off on Facebook and Twitter.

Marcoux runs the Vulgar Chef blog, which is an irreverent, profanity-laced foodie blog.
