Most of the time I love living here in San Francisco, but occasionally, something pops up that makes me wonder why oh why I don't live somewhere else. Usually it's food related, and this time it's the Col-Pop. The Col-Pop is South Korean based BBQ Chicken's new gizmo that combines a drink container with a food container. Col-Pop could seriously take over the world, but right now they are available on the US East Coast only. Our friends at Serious Eats got to check it out and even made a video and a chart. Be sure to check out all of their coverage, or check out the video when you read more.

That's cool but I'd totally dump the chicken all over myself...I always tilts cups like that because my boobs get in the way! Hehe.
1It looks good, I'd try it!
2Both fascinating and disgusting and disgustingly fascinating.
3that's really interesting - i think that it's a good concept when you're walking and trying to carry/eat at the same time. at least this way you have 2 things in one container!
4It would make eating in the car easier, not that it's a good habit to be in. There's actually one of these restaurants in my town - I'm tempted to try it just for the novelty factor!
The chicken on their webiste *looks* great, and apparently it's all cooked in EVOO. Hooray! Still, I doubt I'd like it better than Chik-Fil-A...
5Perhaps I'm being too harsh because I'm not crazy about fried chicken but I wouldn't want to smell chicken while sipping my soda.
6Ewwwwwwwwwww
7That is disgusting!
8Ew Ew Ew!!!
strange
9I agree with the "ewwws!"
10nifty, i like it.
11The Col-Pop is wrong, just wrong.
12"But Won't Your Soda Get Warm?"
No.
13A.) Heat rises.
B.) There aren't that many nuglets in the top, so any heating/cooling issues quickly cease to be a concern.
no way! yuckiess!!
14Great, just what America needs, more junk food.
15thanks akuban - i was wondering if there would be any sort of condensation happening on the bottom of the nugget cup too. either way, i'd definitely try it. Thanks for tipping us all off to wonder that is the col-pop!
16I have never seen anything like this. I want to see it in person.
17Interesting!
18convenient!
people are going to drink soda and eat fast food anyway...
19My mind is kinda blown right now.
20Cool!
21Doesn't look like you would get much soda or nuggets this way. I think I will stick to separate containers. I have to admit that when one makes it this way I will have to try it at least once though.

23Disgusting. We need less convenience food, not more.
24This is really strange, but there's one here in the city.. I'd check it out sometime but I'd share it, and I wouldn't walk around with it. Ack
