Braille sesame seed buns – Marketing at its best
Alright, so I kinda laughed when I first saw this. Seriously? Braille on buns?? What kind of advertising stunt is this? sigh
But then I watched the video, and really, it’s not such a bad idea. Sure, it’s publicity stunt, but I’m pretty okay with that. They made some good points, thought creatively, and are reaching an audience that is rarely catered to in food, much less in a way like this. It’s pretty awesome!
The month is about over, but January was National Braille Literacy Month and these burgers are from Wimpy’s in South Africa. They also released all new braille menus, but the burgers are the cool part. Unfortunately, they aren’t actually a regular item on the menu and were just brought to a blind institution for promotional purposes, of course, but the commercial makes you think.
“….but for people who use their hands as their eyes, this was the first time they could do more than just their food. They could see it.” :)
Play football with flaming coconuts in Indonesia
There are very few foods I don’t like, but coconut is definitely one of them.
But even so, still kinda neat to watch them have fun with a flaming ball of fire. The story behind it is worth a read, too. Here’s an actual video of it:
12000 pounds of chocolate – Uh, yes please!
Nablopomo – Something I want
