The Greatest Food Culture Site Ever*
If you were ever wondering what the point of YouTube was, it was probably so we could watch Andy Warhol eat a Whopper on demand.
The video, at about four and a half minutes long, consists of nothing more than the artist unbagging the Whopper, pouring ketchup, and then stoically beginning his lunch. And, strangely, we cannot look away.

Two works of classic American art — Andy Warhol’s iconic Campbell’s soup cans and Converse canvas footwear — recently joined forces to create Converse Campbell’s Sneakers.
Teaming up with the Andy Warhol Foundation, Converse is offering the soup shoes in Tomato, Black Bean, and Vegetable — as well as a collage of soup cans and other works from Warhol.
So, if you’re a fan of Warhol, soup, vintage kicks, or all of the above… the Converse Campbell’s Sneakers go on sale February 7. A portion of the sales will go to the Andy Warhol Foundation for the Visual Arts. Check them out here.
