The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
Artist/culture jammer/shit-stirrer Ron English is at it again. Officially titled Cap’n Cornstarch, English rendered the morbidly obese cereal mascot in vinyl — extra chins and diabetes-induced missing leg and all. The Cap’n must’ve gotten into those boxes of All Crunch Berries.
See English’s previous Fat Tony The Tiger.

Let’s face it… If Tony the Tiger had actually been practicing what he preached since 1951, he wouldn’t be the broad-shouldered and narrow-waisted mascot that’s on the Frosted Flakes box.
Artist Ron English, who loves to have fun at the expense of cereal manufacturers, created the Fat Tony Vinyl Figure — continuing his mission to raise awareness of the dangers of some kid’s cereals. Now that’s gr-r-reat!!!
