15 Best Homemade Food Costumes For Halloween

By Isabelle Langheim at University of Illinois

It’s that time of year again where you don’t have to be yourself for just one day! October 31 is almost here and you better be prepared. Rule number one to winning any costume contest: choose to be food. It’s funny and will get your appetite going. Here are some of the top food costumes that you can make cheaply right at home.

1. Cotton Candy

Life advice: Use actual cotton and not real cotton candy.

2. Pizza Rolls

Just a pillowcase and some paint and you become the most lusted after drunk food.

3. Black-eyed Pea

Everyone loves a good pun.

4. Grapes

An ideal costume for when you and your friends feel like being a bunch of grapes.

5. Taco Bell Sauce

6. Starbucks

7. Chipotle

One tight dress + one printed logo = instant food costume

8. Candy Corn

9. Natty Light

Tip: leave some room for the ladies.

10. Soda Pop

11. Candy Couture

Bring out your inner Project Runway star talent and whip up one of these cute gum wrapper getups. Just don’t move to much, it might break.

12. Bags of Chips

Not a candy fan? Tape together all of those chip bags you have laying around. Bet you can’t make just one.

13. Red Lobster

Be a bright red lobster. What else are you going to do with the copious amounts of red solo cups that you own?

Bring in the dancing lobster! (Throwback to pre-rehab Amanda Bynes.)

14. Beer Pong

You and your friend can lay there, not speak and be the life of the party.

15. Corn

Pay homage to the Morrow Plots. Don’t you want to be known as the cute corn couple?

Happy Halloween!
