DEATH CIGARETTES
Only available in the UK, these cancer sticks were an overnight marketing success. Many of my Art Student peers and hordes of rebellious teenagers loved to wave the Jolly Roger while puffing a cloud of pure DEATH.  An excellent concept that did nothing to hide the fact that smoking kills behind supposed elegance and machismo.  BJ Cunningham may have begun the anti-brand movement before we new what that meant!!

I was reminded of this when I discovered how the bright boys at Brooklyn Brothers had launched their own chocolate brand “Fat Pig”. Hey, chocolate ‘aint much good for you but does it taste good or what??

I haven’t managed to get my hands on a bar or three but as a confirmed chocoholic I’m sure to be enjoying the (unrelated) Brothers’ brand of sweet treats pretty soon.
