Tea time just took a disturbing turn with Tea Party. The clay sculpture series, by Israeli artist Ronit Baranga, creates what should be the scene of a girl and her tea party. It quickly turns nightmarish as the cups and saucers feature mouths and fingers.
Tea Party was displayed in Australia’s beinArt gallery last month. Hopefully, your next tea time goes a little better… especially if it includes those little sandwiches.

According to Kuwait-based, Al Bayan, a local shop was caught placing googly eyes on fish to help them appear fresher than they were. We’d like to think that the store was just trying to add some much-needed comic relief to a boring seafood counter.
However, it appears that the store was in fact using googlies to sell fish — which definitely goes against the googly code and everything that googlies stand for. Shame.
Kuwaiti police has shut down a fish store that was sticking googly eyes on fish to make them appear more fresh than they are. 🙂

We can all agree that baked beans don’t belong everywhere. Things Full of Beans That Shouldn’t Be Full of Beans doesn’t care about we feel.
The Facebook page is exactly what the name implies — pictures of baked beans in places where they have no business being. Although, some would argue that baked beans don’t even belong on dinner plates — there is something appealing about them filling up syringes, guns and bongs.
See more bean-madness below and over at their Facebook page.

Clear coffee is here, and we have some questions. Firstly, “what in the hell?” Then it’s on to, “Why does this product exist?”
CLR CFF, as it’s known, has the answers we seek, and they actually makes perfect sense. Created by brothers David and Adam Nagy, the bottled brew is here to help solve a real world problem… and it’s not just to fill the gaping hole in the clear beverage market left by Crystal Pepsi.
The once opaque beverage is now clear to keep from staining the drinker’s teeth. Using “high quality Arabica coffee beans” and “methods which have never been used before,” CLR CFF will provide the caffeine fix you seek, while maintaining your pearly whites. Unless you’ve been drinking a lot of regular coffee and your teeth are a shade of tan. See, you need this stuff.

A McDonald’s Big Mac isn’t the easiest food item to digest. And, apparently, sulfuric acid doesn’t fare much better against this worthy opponent.
Thanks to Let’s Melt This, we can now see what happens when a virtually indestructible food item meets a powerful corrosive. Although, we’d expect a little more damage inflicted — the Big Mac only loses some of its integrity and color.
Let’s call this one a draw… a disgusting, stomach-churning draw.
