The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
There are few things more soul-crushing than opening up a pizza delivery box, only to find remnants of leftover cheese and sauce.
Artist Stefan Kuhnigk wants to make empty pizza boxes a lot more fun to open, with The Pizza Monster. Inspired by his own project, Coffee Monsters, and recruited by lieferando.de, Stefan morphs that unfortunate sauce splatter into an adorable monster named Schnabuli.
Cute, but still want pizza now.

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.

At the time of this writing, children are only interested in three things… Star Wars, dinosaurs, and lunch. Brooklyn-based artist Nina Levy knows this, and creates Lunch Napkin Illustrations of Star Wars Characters Riding Dinosaurs.
Included in the school lunches of her 12 and 8-yr-old, the kids are treated daily to Han Solo on a Stegosaurus, Darth Vader atop an Indominus Rex, or Chewie on a Suchomimus. Hopefully the kids aren’t too messy.

If food could talk… For real, not the imaginary beckoning voice in your head… It might say something like what’s displayed in these adorably honest illustrations.
Created by artist David Olenick, our honest foods tell it like it is. Which is a refreshing change from fruits and vegetables. They lie.
Black coffee and Oreos… They’re not just for breakfast anymore. Malaysia-based artist Yeirkif Abdullah, having apparently lost his circle template, uses mugs of black coffee and Oreos to complete fun black and white illustrations.
Need Mickey ears? Done. Wall-E’s eyes? Oreos to the rescue. Have fun at breakfast, or at any meal that needs orbs in a hurry.
