The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Have you ever looked at a perfectly-manufactured food item, and wanted nothing more than to smash the living hell out of it?
Artist Mar Cuervo channels this pent-up aggression, and unleashes it on various desserts and other vulnerable food items. The project titled “Destroyer” is a series of short GIFs that first displays a food, just asking to be annihilated.
Enter Mar’s hand, and the chaos begins. Check out a few below and over at the artist’s website here.
Look into the endless donut… You are getting huuungry. These infinite GIFs are brought to us by Polish artist Feliks Konczakowski.
If looking at foodstuffs ain’t your thing, Feliks’s GIF art will also have you staring aimlessly into flowers, space, and an endless Hulk Hogan. Anyone hungry yet, brother?!?

Popsicle stick jokes are usually pretty lame. However, you must admit that the set-up and popsicle-covered punchline makes for great comedic timing. Jason Kreher and Matt Moore from Wieden + Kennedy knows this, and have created their own brand of popsicle humor.
With the creative duo’s latest installment of Schadenfreezers, the animated GIFs begin innocently enough with the popsicle joke’s set-up. Only then, does it all melt away, revealing punchlines as cold as the popsicles themselves.
Sure, the fictional treats are available in strawberry, lemon and blueberry. But the jokes hidden within are truly tasteless — albeit pretty funny. Please enjoy.

Finally… An infinite GIF that we wouldn’t mind watching until the sun burns out. Provided by Reddit, the looped animation brings us up close and personal to the process of making Pop-Tarts.
Just try to look away from the application of the jam-like substance into its dough envelope — where it’s then folded and pressed. Did we mention that you can watch this process forever?
Unfortunately we don’t get to see the best part, which is the sugar coating and sprinkles. Perhaps these are just the hell-spawn unfrosted version.
Quick update: This may or may not be a video of actual Pop-Tarts — but rather the far inferior, but no-less hypnotic Smuckers Uncrustables. We’ll keep you posted on this as we learn more. Try to get on with your day in the meantime.
Artist Andrew Salomone isn’t happy with ordinary static pizza. No, Andrew has created something called The Pizzoetrope — which combines the concept of a zoetrope with pizza, to create animated gifs. Check out his tutorial below, while you crave boring non-animated pizza for dinner.
