Foodie Proposals
Tomorrow is Valentine's Day and all I can manage to see on the Internet are stories about food retailers and boutiques offering special "proposal" packages.Take Pizza Hut, for example. The pizza franchise is offering a special engagement package for $10,010. What does this package get you? Full rights to propose at any Pizza Hut, limo service, flowers, fireworks, a videographer, a photographer, a ruby red ring and a Pizza Hut dinner box containing "a medium one-topping rectangular pan pizza, five breadsticks with marinara sauce and 10 cinnamon sticks with a sweet icing cup in one box."
Not your style? Then consider the $55,000 cupcake that a Philadelphia from Cupcakes Gourmet. The red velvet cupcake is made with the highest quality of ingredients including an edible gold leaf and white truffles. But the main secret for the hefty price talk is the 8-carat engagement ring (from Warwick Jewelers) that is set in the frosting.
Would you consider any of these for proposing? Would you say yes to a pizza hut proposal? What is your dream "foodie proposal"?

My dream foodie proposal would be...
The most elegant cheeseburger ever, given to me in a cheeseburger box to look like a velvet ring box and when you open it, the ring is propped on the top bun.
If I were to take one of these I'd like the second. But with a different ring. I don't like the one in the picture.
Gotta say that I love both food and diamonds (and mealtime proposals), but I like my jewelry food free. It really annoys me when I watch cooking shows and the cook is wearing big ol' diamond rings ('cause real chefs would never wear diamond rings while cooking) and mixing the meatloaf. I wouldn't mind a ring in a ring box on the plate/tray my meal or dessert came on...the ring should never been in the food 'cause my food-loving fatness would probably just dive right in and not notice the special sparkly stuff. A trip to the emergency room is a surefire way to make a proposal very unromantic quickly.
i would never marry someone who proposed to me at pizza hut... that's absolutely ridiculous
Oh my goodness that cupcake...and the ring! So pretty. I would die if someone proposed to me with food haha. Considering I'm totally food obsessed, I would love it!! The cupcake is too cute.
i think the cupcake & the ring is quite cute.
but I would not want someone to hide the ring in my food, i'll choke to death before I can say Yes.
