The Year’s Top 7 Food Homages to Gangnam Style

What does PSY’s viral K-pop hit, Gangnam Style (now at 1 billion views), have to do with food? Absolutely nothing, we’ll admit. In fact, there’s no strong link between food and this sophisticated-looking Korean man in sunglasses gyrating his hips with wild abandon to upbeat music. Both provide nourishment — ahem, in different ways, of course — but that’s about it.

Despite the lack of a direct connection, that hasn’t stopped the food world from jumping on the phenomenon and making Gangnam Style every little bit as relevant. From restaurant parodies of the now-famous dance to the creative likenesses of the pop star’s face in latte foam, there’s no end to the obsession.

Below, our 7 favorite food homages to Gangnam Style.

Oh yeah, we’d supersize these. This image of Gangnam Style fries is probably fake and photoshopped — but wouldn’t it be great if it were real? The bag features instructions on how to incorporate PSY’s horse dance into your consumption of fried potatoes.
