Giant Sausage Mortadella

In Bologna and the surrounding area, the boiled sausage known as Mortadella can be as heavy as 200 kilograms. Even weirder is the fact that it’s cut into the thinnest slices, so its taste and aroma can be fully appreciated.

Nuka Cola Vending Machine

The machine is an old Vendo96 with stickers designed by my friend Peggy and printed on our large-format printer. The NukaCola Quantum is a Mike's Hard Lemonade with an auqa-colored LED and battery taped to the bottom of the bottle. That's one of us Shop Guys holding the bottle all Vanna-White-on-smack style.

Creative Bento Lunches

Bento is an art form for packing lunches in the Japanese culture. When you think of lunchboxes, you're probably thinking of the old brown paper bag or the cute cartoon character metal or plastic lunchboxes children take to school with them.

The Japanese have taken the act of packing a lunch or meal to a whole different level of sophistication and fun!

What makes them fun is that these boxes come in many creative styles. The compartments can be the same size or different sizes and the Bento Boxes themselves can be made from different materials and they come in many different themes and shapes from kitty shaped hello kitty box to a round shaped lunch box with two layers.
