Years ago, when Limp Bizkit was a thing for a lot of other people, Fred Durst and company made up our minds to name considered one of their albums "Chocolate Starfish and the Hot Dog Flavored Water."

The album duvet is reasonably awful and a little bit disgusting. I'm no longer certain what is going on with the "chocolate starfish" in that picture, however I've a couple of ideas, and I'm no longer really keen on pursuing them any more.

Now I'm going to move out on a limb and assume that the band didn't come with "hot dog flavored water" in the name of their album in an attempt to trap prospective CD patrons via invoking a sense of deliciousness. I'm quite positive repulsion is strictly what they were going for.

Bevans, a tour operator and artist, said that he got here up with the thought whilst thinking up a option to touch upon "snake oil salesmen" in the well being business.

It turns out that all over the place you turn, there is some type of suspicious-looking well being craze likegem-infused water or the doubtlessly life-threatening "Raw Water" looking to price you top rate prices in the hopes of making you consider you can attain best possible well being nirvana.

"It’s really sort of a commentary on product marketing, and especially sort of health-quackery product marketing," Bevans stated."From the responses, I think people will actually go away and reconsider some of these other $80 bottles of water that will come out that are ‘raw’ or ‘smart waters,’ or anything that doesn’t have any substantial scientific backing but just a lot of pretty impressive marketing."

lol, I did not learn all the strategy to the finish. So now I'm 90% certain it is a stunt. (This is Vancouver, the place no claim is just too ridiculous to be believed by way of any individual.)

Even although the Hot Dog Water was once a stunt, folks nonetheless purchased and drank it all the way through the day. "They've been drinking it for hours. We have gone through about 60 liters of real hot dog water," Bevans stated.

Sounds like he's well on his option to recouping the $1,two hundred he spent on branding, bottles, and labels for his artwork stunt. Along with the Hot Dog lip balm, breath spray, and "body fragrance." Man, he went all in.
