Looks like Dentyne decided to get WEIRD…from Anthony Yankovic:

If you like chewing gum, then pick one of these Dentyne bottles up at your local gum store. They’ve been slowly popping up here and there, as the old stock depletes they are replaced by these newer fancier ones.

John Nese is the proprietor of Galcos Soda Pop Stop in LA. His father ran it as a grocery store, and when the time came for John to take charge, he decided to convert it into the ultimate soda-lovers destination. About 500 pops line the shelves, sourced lovingly by John from around the world. John has made it his mission to keep small soda-makers afloat and help them find their consumers. Galcos also acts as a distributor for restaurants and bars along the West Coast, spreading the gospel of soda made with cane sugar (no high-fructose corn syrup if John can avoid it).

Born out of the principle of crowdsourcing, two advertising agencies have come together for a first…to buy Pabst Brewing Co., brewers of over 25 well known beer brands. The asking price is $300 Million, not a small number, but through crowdsourcing pledges of as little as $5.00, the cost of a bottle of beer, this can be achieved based on the largest crowdsourced audience assembled, ever.

Make a pledge from the choices below. Once the asking price is reached, you will be notified. Upon collection, you will receive your very own and a first, a crowdsourced certificate of ownership suitable for framing as well as enough beer to match your pledge

Don’t worry, it’s all made out of bread…

From The Daily Fork:

The baker is Kittiwat Unarrom, and he has a master’s degree in fine arts. His canvas of choice: bread. Using his family’s bakery as his studio, Unarrom sculpts his creations using dough, raisins, cashews, chocolate, and whatever other edible supplies can provide a spine tingling realism to his terrifying baked goods.

Here’s a great article on home brewing and it’s effect on the beer market of today.

Drinkers began to envision a new role for home-brew: Instead of functioning as a cheap do-it-yourself alternative to well-made commercial beers, why couldn’t it function as a well-made do-it-yourself alternative to cheap commercial beers?

Indeed.
