Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 21 Oct, 01:03 · Archive

Nine West Virginia high school teams are competing in the fifth annual Culineering Challenge, designing edible vehicles for crash tests.

The West Virginia Department of Education's Culineering Challenge is underway in Charleston, with nine high school career and technical education teams taking part in the fifth annual competition.

This year's theme is 'Crash Test Yummy', requiring each team to design and construct an edible vehicle inspired by one of West Virginia's state parks. The competition blends culinary arts with engineering. Each team consists of two engineering students, two culinary students and a social media manager.

According to contestant Aly Stillwagoner from the Wetzel County Technical Education Center, the goal is to make the vehicles completely edible. 'We definitely don't want any metal or wood or anything that we built out of showing,' she said. 'Our goal is to make it completely edible.'

The crash tests will begin at 9:30 on Wednesday morning, with an awards ceremony at 1 p.m. the same afternoon.
