The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Don’t be fooled by their adorableness… These Medieval Fruit and Vegetable Warriors will slice you up before you even think of taking a bite.
Brought to us by artist, Artemii Myasnikov, the edible warriors are a small part of his arsenal of work.
Check out Instagram for Artemii’s awesome illustrations of robots, pop culture characters and other ass-kickers. None as delicious-looking as our fruit warriors though.
Slicing fruit may seem mundane. That is unless the process is displayed in stop-motion video, slice by slice, revealing the patterns contained within.
Hidden Patterns Inside Fruits and Vegetables is a mesmerizing video by filmmaker Kevin Parry. Slice by slice, frame by frame, Parry creates a video that’s sure to make the viewer want some fruit — and possibly get hypnotized.
See the patterns get revealed in the video below.

Fruit stickers are small, unassuming and under-appreciated. However, these little oblongs, squares and rhombi make fine collectibles, and often employ a brilliant use of design and typography. Now, the versatile decals are a t-shirt.
The Fruit Sticker T-shirt is brought to us by art project, Fruit Stickers, and shirt-maker Everpress. The tees are now available for pre-order and, the best part, is that each one comes with a set of fruit stickers. No trip to the produce section necessary.
Look at that sad smoothie of yours. One boring color, probably a depressing shade of green, not groovy at all. Fortunately, Rachel Lorton is changing the smoothie aesthetic as we know it.

Italian artist, Daniele Barresi, creates fruit and vegetable masterpieces. One of his latest works is a race against time, with a beautiful avocado carving that took about one hour.
The avocado pit, which is often a nuisance, becomes the centerpiece of the intricate fruit art. Barresi works with various types of fruits and vegetables, and sometimes soap. See more below and over on Instagram.
