I once read an article about new media, talking about how we should advertise using day-to-day products and items such as Coffee Cups. I’m a heavy Starbucks drinker and I always repeat to myself “Man this would make a great place to advertise” and also there are a lot of different products that can turn in to media, like Pizza Boxes, Take away Lunch Sacks, Plastic cutlery the list goes on and on.
In Japan there is a product that would make a great media, and is also seen as an art, that right Bento Boxes, there is a lot of ways to build transform the food in to images, here are some examples.

Leave it to Japan to use lunchtime to throw ads in your face. At least they are cute ads.
