Pull-Apart Bacon Bread
This list of Pinterest foods is really in no particular order, because all of these foods can truly stand on their own. But there is one pin that truly leaves a haunting effect: the pull-apart bacon bread. A whole loaf of sourdough injected with ranch dressing, cheddar cheese, butter, and bacon bits. It is gluttonous and delightful all at the same time, and something few of us would know existed if it wasn't for Pinterest and its many obsessive pinners.

Popcorn Cake
Pinterest has a good sense of humor, and doesn't shy away from foods that are... well, a little bit off-the-wall. Enter the popcorn cake. Popcorn, pretzels and M&Ms held together with marshmallows and butter, baked in a bunt cake ring. It's like a Rice Crispy treat on steroids.

Pasta-Pasta

Healthy Soups
Fear not, healthy eaters. Pinterest isn't just a hub for guilt food. For those out there craving something not-too-fatty on a cold winter's day, Pinterest has lists of not-too-guilty soups. Everything from chicken tortilla to lentil to baked potato with bacon.

Salad-in-a-jar
Okay, so maybe it's not the most inventive food idea posted on Pinterest. But it's a super fun way to prepare your lunch the night before work, and even keeps the dressing from soggy-ing up the rest of the salad.

Healthy Lunch Ideas
Just because it's "healthy," doesn't mean it has to be a leafy salad. This site also pins recipes to healthy lunch options that will help any desk-bound worker fend off the 3 o'clock munchies. (Such as a protein-rich barley and black bean salad.)

Southwest Quinoa Salad
Pinterest is jam-packed with lots of low-fat and "clean" meals. One popular choice, (with more than 1950 re-pins,) is the Southwest quinoa salad, which is not only tasty but dubbed "heart healthy" as well.

"Healthy" desserts in shot glasses
The tasting-size dessert in a shot glass might be the best addition to any dinner party or Girls Night In. Just beware of their small size: Just because some of them are labeled "healthy desserts" probably doesn't make it okay to eat three of them when nobody is looking.

Triple-Triple Chocolate Cake
There's cake, and then there's caaaaaake. And then Pinterest linked us to Raspberri Cupcake's triple-triple chocolate cake: Made with three kinds of chocolate ganache between dark chocolate cake layers, we've just about died and gone to cake heaven.

Finger Food
While Pinterest gives us a plethora of meal ideas, it also acts as a window to the wide world of foods that you can eat off of a toothpick. There's everything from easy tomato-basil-mozzarella bites to complex confections topped with caviar.

Mozzarella Bites
Despite one blog's suggestion to use fat-free cheese because it won't stick to the baking sheet as easily, there is nothing fat-free about these homemade mozzarella bites. This popular pin might be an artery-clogging appetizer, but that hasn't kept it from being re-posted over 1,000 times.

Stuffed Cheeseburger
Pinterest is one of those sites that can introduce you to foods you thought only existed in fairy tales. And even as we look upon this cheese-stuffed, bacon-wrapped, guac-smothered meat patty, it's hard to believe that such a burger is legal for consumption.
