Introducing Carrot throws a little shade on hi-tech product launches, while extolling the benefits of the most popular of root vegetables.
Whether it’s using a two-finger swipe to enjoy the vegetable’s texture, or the carrot’s built-in update notification — we’re reminded that the carrot is indeed a wonder product that we obviously cannot live without.
Rumor is, that it might bend in your pocket though. #carrotgate

To help make sure that all of your accessories are fried chicken-related, KFC Japan is back with more giveaways.
The KFC Drumstick iPhone Case is here to help protect your phone. Although it looks a bit ridiculous, it may wind up being a bit smaller than the iPhone 6 Plus, and will look a bit more appropriate while you’re eating an actual drumstick in your other hand.
Although not actually for sale, the KFC iPhone Case will be awarded to one lucky drumstick-lover who follows KFC Japan on Twitter.

Sure, you could easily scan your food to find out its caloric and gluten content. But what if you’re a conscience shopper who monitors your foods’ gaseous properties?
Fart Code is a handy little mobile app that’ll scan the bar code of foods, and let you know the amount of flatulence you could expect from them. Although this seems a bit childish, Fart Code actually uses a sophisticated algorithm to determine how toxic a fart would be, based on the food’s ingredients.
The fartometer, as it’s called, then gives you a rating and appropriate fart noise and vibration. Just remember, that your iPhone on ‘silent,’ could be deadly.

Would you like a fire-breathing dragon to fly out of your castle cake? There’s an app for that.
Brought to us by How To Cook That, their Surprise Cake app will help animate any of your baked goods. So, if your kid’s cake is lacking any “wow” factor, simply install the app on your iPhone or iPad, then place the marker where you’d like the action to happen.
When viewed through your mobile device, the cake will appear to have a genuine stone interior, and a fire-breathing dragon will fly out out of it. No worries… The dragon eventually flies back in, so the birthday boy can blow out the candles. Coolest. Birthday. Ever.
