Encourage Kids To Play With, Possibly Eat Their Vegetables With ‘Open Toys’

November 25, 2014 by Chris Durso

If you’re having trouble getting the kids to eat any fruits or vegetables, Open Toys might be able to help.

The 3D-printable accessories will transform that produce into airplanes, submarines, and hovercrafts. Perhaps after playing with an apple and carrot long enough, they’ll work up an appetite, and eat their vehicle.

Open Toys are unfortunately not available for sale, but the templates to print your own can be found here. Just in case you have a finicky eater, some produce, and a 3D printer .

Those handy instructions that accompany a public restroom hand-dryer have inspired one of the most fantastic memes ever, Push Button, Receive Bacon.

The Rabbit Hole, realizing that nobody enjoys the empty promise of bacon, have created a machine that’ll finally reward the button-pusher with yummy pork fat. The bacon machine is made possible with a repurposed printer, while bacon sizzles along its fuser.

The sign no longer lies. Go, technology!

With all the recent burgers that’ve said ‘no’ to the traditional bread bun, none have kicked it old school quite like the Beef Stroganoff Burger.

Brought to us by The Food In My Beard, the alternative bun is made possible with molded egg noodles. It’s finished off by topping the burger with the traditional Stroganoff onion/mushroom mixture. The ‘how to’ can be found here, so you can be stroganoffing in no time.
