In one of the more, uh, cheeky fundraisers we've heard of to raise money for Japan post-earthquake, a coalition of food bloggers have banded together to take it all off for charity. The project is called Nudie Foodies, and they seem to have a good thing going, or, if nothing else, a very attention-grabbing thing.
The project features 18 food bloggers, including local favorites Food Mayhem, The Diva That Ate New York, Hungry Rabbit and One Tough Cookie NYC, in various stages of undress, posing with everything from live chickens to Peeps, along with a recipe from each blogger. The photos and recipes are being compiled for a soon-to-be-released book, whose profits will be donated to a charity committed to the Japan relief effort. The project was the idea of Seattle-based food blogger Linda Nicholson, who can be seen here modeling the aforementioned Peeps bikini.
