The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
What was the best way that you were welcomed — if at all — to a new job? Let’s assume that it didn’t involve having a candy-dispensing copy of your head made.
Ad agency, Red Tettemer O’Connell + Partners, knows how to welcome new hires — recently turning a few into Pez Dispensers. Creative Director/Art Director Ron Villacarillo and Associate Creative Director/Copywriter Ben Levy can now sit at their new desks, while dispensing candy from their plastic head into their real one.
If you’ve ever owned a Pez dispenser, then you’ve probably imagined how cool it would be to get a likeness of your noggin on it. And, even better, to then fill your limbless plastic body with flavorless candy pellets.
Hot Pop Factory, a jewelry company that 3D prints its products, scanned the heads of their client’s employees and immortalized them in Pez dispenser form. And the people didn’t seem to mind that they were now spewing candy from a gaping hole in their neck.
The Pezidents of The United States is a Threadless t-shirt design by artist Hillary White. It has some fun with some of the former presidents, and depicts what might have popped out if you tilted their head back… and if they were plastic candy dispensers capable of providing insight into their personality.

Rather than spewing acid and biting your face off, the Alien Pez Dispenser would like to offer you a flavorless candy pellet. Unfortunately, this was a one-off creation and was never mass-produced.
It’s probably for the best, since Pez has been known to have a few adverse effects.
