Forget the box — artists print nutrition information directly on desserts

If you ate this cookie quickly enough, you might not notice how bad it is for you. Art and design team Andrew Andrew (the men who innovated iPod DJ-ing) hired a company that specializes in printing edible photographs (and company logos) onto cookies to put accurate nutrition labels onto the cookies themselves. How meta!

Since they're conceptual art, the cookies are a bit pricey — $25 for a set of two. They are said by some to be delicious, while others find them bland. In a world where restaurants may be forced to display nutrition facts on their menus, these cookies presage an era where every Pringle you eat has a calorie count printed on it, instead of Spider-Man 3 trivia.
