What if a “jam session” was actually a meeting between several fruit preserves? Or, a carbonated beverage actually had a penchant for making confectionaries?
Artist Keren Rosen gets literal with her adorable illustrations. Dings & Doodles is a series of cartoons that takes several idioms and puns, and displays them literally. Poor banana split.
Rosen’s illustrations are available at her Etsy page here.

If you’re looking for a breakfast that appeals to kids and adults, and is a little too pretty to eat, look no further than these Pixar Pancakes.
Brought to us by Dan Drake of Dan Cakes, he creates colorful and scary-accurate pancake portraits of some of our favorite Pixar characters.
There’s Toy Story, A Bug’s Life, Up, and even Cars. Then, since Dan apparently has some extra batter, he creates a bunch of obscure secondary characters. Please watch this…

Rather than fill up his blue recycling tub with cans, artist Makaon reuses his empties, converting them into pop culture characters.
From a beer can Vader to aluminum Woody and Buzz — cans are cut and shaped into the characters, while using the can’s existing color pattern to perfection.

Our favorite pop culture icons always seem to remain in perfect shape. But what if they, like actual people, were to let themselves go? Let’s find out, shall we?
Famous Chunkies, brought to us by artist Alex Solis, is a fun cartoon series that provides a visual of some fattened-up pop culture icons. Poor fat Spider-Man will hardly be able to do whatever a spider can now, while Darth Vader apparently discovered the Death Star food court.
And, Captain America… Let’s just say he’s never looked more American. See more below, and the entire series here.

Having trouble getting the kids to eat a healthy lunch? Perhaps you’re not making their lunchboxes adorable enough.
San Francisco-based father and blogger Beau Coffron, a.k.a. Lunchbox Dad, creates cute pop culture-inspired lunches every week for his two kids.
Compartmentalized, bento-style, his kids are treated to anything from a few banana minions to Captain America’s shield. Most would have trouble digging into Kermit’s head, but as long as the kids are eating healthy.
