Otaku Food

 
Otaku Food
Q:How do you get otaku to stop playing eroge and come out of their house once in a while to eat food?
A:Plaster food with moe characters and put a moe sticker inside the box - have a look at what type of food at Ascii.

Barsona, I guess you just have to stare at the screen while instinctively guiding the food to your mouth and check from time to time to not get the latter splattered everywhere on your desk. ^^;
Not very tempting food however, I reckon.

I wonder why they dont use this on cars, so you ignore the inherent crappiness.

Uhmm.... That doesn't look like food at all. Microwave dinners look more appetizing and I hate those things.

Clicked the link and saw some distasteful looking food... The first one looked like chicken?? Second one looked like pineapples? Waffles? The third one looked like dog's dropping they found on the floor... I hope it doesn't taste as good as it looks... But the characters are just too uber cute~

I'm rather surprised you don't know what the second one is! Especially judging by your location.. 
Anyway, that would be lotus root: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lotus_root#Uses

As for the rest of the unidentified.. stuff, I have no idea.
I'd buy them all though. The marketing strategy is working on me.
BTW, Danny, the pic you posted.. that girl looks a little like Siesta of Zero no Tsukaima, don't you think?

This is interesting.  I'm used to seeing カレー everywhere, rather than カリー.  Is there a reason this curry is different?

Extravagant. However I don't think this is the first time moe characters have been used on food packaging...
