Comparison
Development & Detail
It wasn’t my idea of fun at all.
But I wanted to make some slices of meat that had a texture made of penises.
Notes
In the supermarket. Not exactly the same product, but they only had larger different shaped cans of normal stuff when I took this photo.
★★★★★
Barry C., Leeds
A tin that finally embraces what everyone was secretly thinking.
★★★★☆
Sandra Bottomley, Bristol
Ridiculous, unnecessary, and somehow exactly right.
★★★☆☆
Kevin from Wankington-on-Sea
I am confused, but I cannot stop looking at it.
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
A Cupboard Classic with Added Breasticles
A reassuringly premium instant soup box combining familiar comfort, aggressively rounded branding and an entirely unnecessary quantity of tits.
Boobies Mug o’ Jugs Norks & Breasticles takes the conventions of brightly coloured instant soup packaging and pushes them somewhere considerably more mammary.

Origin Notes
As with a lot of food packaging, the original is bright, colourful and visually busy. That made it a good candidate for a complete Rude Pantry rebuild rather than a simple front-label joke.

Notes
This was the first product I took to a supermarket to photograph on the shelf. Taking it out of a bag was fine. Putting it back looked considerably more like shoplifting.
