Kids (and brown-bagging adults) need somewhere to store their lunch. And, what better way to do it, than to go old-school? All the cool kids are doing it.

The Lunch Bot Robot Lunch Box is designed to look like a vintage robot, and will gladly hold anything you can stuff in his tin body. Be cool… Bring a Lunch Bot to school.

Lunch Bot is available at The Foodiggity Shop. Made from non-corrosive tin, with a durable PVC plastic handle. Approximately 9.5″ x 6.5″ x 3.5″. Eager to serve.

So That’s What Happens To Former Pizza Huts

October 9, 2015 by Chris Durso

Copycat. California, Pennsylvania, USA.

So, what happens when a Pizza Hut goes out of business, and a new tenant moves into the distinctively-roofed building? Pizza Hunt wants to show you.

Brought to us by photographer, Ho Hai Tran, the photo series consists of former Pizza Huts, that now house completely different, non-hut-related businesses.

Even if it’s now a liquor store, Chinese restaurant, funeral home, or church — it’s unmistakeable that a pizza-like product and breadsticks were once served there.

The project is currently in Kickstarter phase to help raise funds for a Pizza Hunt photo book. Check it out here.

This Ridiculous 1991 Sizzler Commercial Is The Most American Thing That Ever Existed

April 16, 2015 by Chris Durso

sizzler-video

Nothing says “Murica!” quite like freedom, over-the-top advertising, and your right to eat whatever the hell you want at a reasonable price.

This 1991 Sizzler commercial has all of these things, therefore, it is the most American thing to ever America. Overly-sentimental advertising with cringe-inducing voice-over… check. Hordes of hungry Americans huddled around an all-you-can-eat buffet… done and done.

But the greatest part, besides trying to imagine the original pitch meeting for this ad, is how this four-minute spot perfectly sums up an early 90s America. It was a country still recovering from the 80s — shown in the questionable fashion sense, a soundtrack for the tone-deaf, and heavy emphasis on value after the decade of excess. And, the steaks… Oh my, those steaks.

Please watch this…

If you’re looking for the perfect cereal couture, you should be holding on to one of these clutch handbags that are made to look like vintage cereal boxes.

Brought to us by English designer Anya Hindmarch, the cereal box clutches are part of her new Imperial collection. They’re to be featured at Hindmarch’s new Mini-Mart, which hopes to bring “luxury to the not-so-luxurious world of mini-mart products.”

The “luxury” part comes in the form of the packaging graphics printed on python skin, and accented with suede lining and gold closures. They’re GRRREAT!!
