Conformist Food

Reed sent me a link to this great set of pictures of food that takes the shape of its container.


I like this one because you can see the broccoli straining to fit into its box, like 1950s college students stuffed in a phone booth. Very nice set by Flickr user Zach Kowalczyk.

They come out square, to fit in boxes!

There are some tomatoes, chemically engineered...

You get major bonus points for quoting a relevant Dan Bern song. (I also love the lines "we're putting barcodes onto fetuses/...we used to do babies/but some of them still got mixed up/this takes care of that")
