The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Artist Chris Write has created an illustration series that takes some well-known sports brands and adds cheese. Brands such as Reebok, Fila, and the easy target of K-Swiss get the cheese-y treatment, as Write has a little fun with them all. I’d wear Briebok.
Check out more from the series here.
Here in ‘merica, cats are nothing more than a poor substitution for a dog. In Japan, when placed atop a bed of sushi rice, cats become Neko-Sushi — a majestic creature akin to a unicorn. Still, dogs rule.
Created by Japanese company Tange & Nakimushi Peanuts, prints of the Sushi Cats are available for purchase, as well as a mobile app for some reason.
In response to a video where humans make fun of how animals eat their food, a few cartoon animals have responded with a video of their own — How Humans Eat Their Food.
But a warning… Cartoon animals can be racist dicks. Enjoy.

The Art Toast Project gives boring toasted bread a much-needed upgrade. Brought to us by Norwegian artist Ida Skivenes — famous works by Monet, Van Gogh, Pollock and others are recreated using various food items with toast as the canvas.
And it’s all documented on Instagram… See more of the project here.

You’ve probably taken your share of donut pictures on Instagram. Now you can take those pseudo-vintage pics WITH a donut. The Doughnut Camera is a 3-megapixel chocolate-frosted digital camera.
Use the included color filter options to make your pics appear old-school, or shoot some retro-looking video. Although a Japanese product, it is available internationally here.
