Topline Trends Tuesday: Food graffiti

Foodgraffiti

I’m often annoyed by graffiti. A few years ago, the cable company’s box on our front lawn was tagged by the disenfranchised youth of our neighbourhood and I was irked to no end. Seeing that unnecessary eye clutter every morning really ticked me off. But, when I saw this food graffiti in Montreal last week I grinned from ear-to-ear.

Why, I wondered, isn’t there more food graffiti? So, I went looking on the good ole internets (gawd, I miss the verbal comedy of the Bush era!) and discovered a few other gems of the genre:

-Toast
-Halal
-Shrimp
-Tofu
-Pork
-Anti- fast food
-Bacon

While I’m not sure food graffiti is a full-blown trend or even an emerging trend, I have to say, I’m intrigued!

Have you ever seen food graffiti? Got a picture you’d like to share? If so, add a link in the comments section.
