Food Packaging – Page 8 – Skate and Annoy

Buddy Bears

Giant box. Small portion. What else would you expect from a movie theater concession stand. This particular box of gummi bears is several years old, but probably still as fresh as the day it was bought. Engorge or enlarge? Check out the parallel stance on that fat bear. It looks like he’s riding a Techni-Ski. […]

Go Stix!

Hippie dippie tea company Celestial Seasonings is getting in the Extreme!™ kids marketing game with these drink mixes called Go Stix. Sure, they have extra vitamins, and half the sugar of competing products, but they are still meant to be poured into convenience store bottled water, which doesn’t seem “all good” as far as mother […]

Dubble Bubble, toil and trouble

Halloween is coming and so far I haven’t seen anything skateboard related outside of this big bag of Dubble Bubble with a skateboarder on it. Dubble Bubble was always a favorite when I was a kid, but damned if that bubble gum doesn’t lose it’s flavor after about two minutes. Still tastes the same though.

I want candy (in a skateboard)

I’ll use any excuse to pst a picture of Annabella Lwin, including colored sugar balls stuffed inside a hollow plastic skateboard. There are at least two versions available, the invert espousing “Loose Bearingz” and the more succinct “Rad.” Pics and bonus vid of Bow Wow Wow’s version of “I want Candy” after the jump.

Wicked Watermelon

Poached from the Stakbot. Click to enlarge.

Made with bits of real panther, so you know it’s good.

Apparently this Choco Milk is actually made with bits of real panther. At least that’s what the packaging would have me believe. John Aguilar hipped me to this, but fortunately I didn’t have to go to Mexico to get it since they had an ample supply in the “Ethnic” section of my local grocery store.

Drunk? Yes, but was he wearing a helmet?

An Australian man got a ticket for drunken skateboarding: Australia: 22-year-old Carey Mitchell Symes has been fined $300 after pleading guilty to drink-driving. Symes had been weaving across lanes at speed and going through traffic lights on a skateboard while holding a can of rum. When police stopped him his blood-alcohol content was .095. He […]

Juice Slam

Conahan sent me this. Apparently he was too weirded out by it to post. Someone should have explained to the suits that the word “slam” has an unpleasant connotation when associated with skateboarding. Burstin Berry? Eeewww! I think I got a few of those this weekend at Sleestock. Nice tweaked tuck knee. Recognize the skater? […]

Life imitates Skate and Annoy

Mark Conahan made a comic with featuring the skateboarders on the Tootsie Roll Pop wrapper. Today I saw on the Krux web site that they have some shirts called “sucker” featuring the appropriated art. Nice job Krux, but a bummer for me because I was working on something similar for a different project. I guess […]
