Ah, the good old, simpler days. We know you light up at the sight of the familiar carts these days, so why not turn your street food faves into plushies to always keep them by your side?

You can now hug (unfortunately, not eat) your fave street food through these plushies.

Can't live without isaw? Kwek-kwek? Fish ball? You can get them every day with these cute plushies. No, it won't be unhealthy because they don't really require frying oil, and you can't eat them, no matter how much you're tempted. Just look at their expressions. How can you eat that?

These handmade plushies, called the Tusok-Tusok Collection, take the form of beloved Filipino street food classics like isaw, kwek-kwek, and fish ball, but with the cutest twist. The kwek-kwek and fishball have three different faces—one per piece—while the isaw has one adorable emoticon on the swiggly intestines. Do take note that these are hand-sewn, so running stitches will be visible. 

The brand also has the Dirty Ice Cream in plushie form. You can take your pick between the Avocado with Mango and Ube mix, and the Ube Mix with Cheese and Chocolate. They even have the tidbits as details on the yummy and huggable treat.

You can check them out at Common Room's physical stores, though stocks are limited. If you order online, expect at least five to ten days of processing upon payment. You can order in bulk, just shoot them an email at shop@commonroomph.com. ICYDK, Common Room is a haven for Filipino crafters and artists.
