Some pretty crazy stuff has come out of Asia but I must say, what you see above is definitely towards the top of that list. The creation in question is an F1 car fashioned completely out of bread done by Royal Plaza On Scotts in Singapore’s Culinary Executive Chef and a team of 6 chefs, 2 technicians, 5 volunteers and 2 artists.
The finished product reportedly took 33 pounds of yeast, 4.4 pounds of salt, almost 3 gallons of varnish and 14 liters of water. Sure this is cool and all, but I wonder how much calories this would be?

According to a new study from Grant Thornton LLP, the financial advisory firm, European and Asian automakers will roll out more cars in North America than Detroit’s ‘Big Three’ by the year 2012.
The study anticipates that after the completion of the restructuring of the domestic auto industry, the combined capacity of Ford, General Motors and Chrysler Group LLC in the North American will decrease by more than 4 million units or a 35 percent decrease compared to 2008, for a total of 7.5 million units in 2012. The study also determines that this dramatic shift in production will have a big impact on North American parts suppliers that will need to guarantee more business from European and Asian makers.
