Those handy instructions that accompany a public restroom hand-dryer have inspired one of the most fantastic memes ever, Push Button, Receive Bacon.
The Rabbit Hole, realizing that nobody enjoys the empty promise of bacon, have created a machine that’ll finally reward the button-pusher with yummy pork fat. The bacon machine is made possible with a repurposed printer, while bacon sizzles along its fuser.
The sign no longer lies. Go, technology!
If you’re in London, and can look away from your iPhone for a bit, there’s currently an apple store with actual apples on display.
The Real Apple Store, inspired by that fake one with all the phones and phablets in it, was created to help celebrate the 1000th anniversary of London’s historic Borough Market and Apple Day.
Visitors can expect to see 1,000 varieties of apples, plenty of which most have never heard of. Siri… What’s a Knobby Russet?

KFC Japan, as a promotional campaign to get you to follow them on Twitter, has come up with a series of fried chicken accessories for your desktop.
The highlight of the set is a keyboard, complete with fried chicken keys. And, no worries about the chicken keyboard looking out of place, as it’s complemented by a fried chicken mouse.
Unfortunately, the KFC desktop is not available for sale. However, each accessory will be rewarded to a few lucky folk who follow KFC Japan on Twitter. Good luck, and hopefully you’ll be double-clicking your new drumstick soon.
Coming soon to a red-roofed, pizza-like eating establishment near you — perhaps — is the Pizza Hut Touchscreen Menu Table.
The concept is simple… Sit down at a table at Pizza Hut, which is actually a large interactive tablet, and use the touchscreen to create your pizza. Choose the size, sauce it up, and then go to town on toppings. Your table will even let you play games on it while you wait for your grub.
Hey, you… Yeah, you with the Pringles can stuck on your hand. There’s a new contraption that’ll help make your chip-dispensing that much easier — without having to reach into the narrow hand-trap.
Entrex is sort of like a potato chip shoe horn, that will slide down that can and conveniently retrieve those elusive chips. The Entrex also comes in an array of colors, and fits around your tin until needed. Happy chip-horning.
