Just when you thought the nightmare that is 2018 couldn’t get any worse, Minor League Baseball is here to prove you wrong. In what can only be described as a concoction created by an alien species with only a passing knowledge of human cuisine, the Erie Seawolves have unleashed this unto the world: a hot dog covered in Nerds candy and shoved into a cotton-candy bun:

Pennsylvania is the home of Hershey, so you’d think the stadium vendors would at least be respectful of their state’s sweetest legacy. Yet here we are. Let’s take a closer look at where they went wrong. Cotton candy is a great summer dessert. It doesn’t melt like ice cream and is easy to share out of giant plastic bags. Nerds are a crunchy delight that, mixed with cotton candy, could make for a delectably diverse experience for the palette. But then they ruin it with a hot dog. Now, I love hot dogs, but pig anuses do not pair well with delicately spun sugar!
This whole debacle could’ve been avoided if instead of a hot dog, the Seawolves chef had used edible raw cookie dough—a fad sweeping the nation—shaped like a hot dog. If they wanted a more classical dessert, they could’ve deep fried any cookie or fruit into the shape of a log. Or, maybe they could’ve taken a page from the cotton candy burrito? Look at this slice of ambrosia. Ice cream, sprinkles, and sugar? Yes, please.
