Steelbeets Customs Mini Deadbeets from Soko Cat

    I think it's safe to say that these little plastic beet toys are much more popular than the actual food they're based on.  If only they could find a way to coat them in all the essential vitamins you would get from actually eating one so that you could absorb all the goodness without the terrible taste.  Or if they could just figure out how to make all vegetables out of meat that would work too.  They're already growing hamburgers in petri dishes, so this shouldn't be far behind.  

    Soko Cat has painted up 5 of these dudes to look like they are made of steel and you can own one right now for only $25.  Pick one up now at http://sokocat.storenvy.com/.

A Plethora of Deadbeets from Toy Art Gallery

    These Deadbeet toys are ridiculously popular, much more so than the actual food item they're based on.  I don't think I've ever eaten a beet before.  In fact, being that they aren't made from red meat or artificial flavors, I can pretty much guarantee it.  Here's my philosophy on eating well:  who cares.  All the vitamins in the world won't stop you from getting hit by a bus or getting mauled by a pack of coyotes.  So eat snacks for meals and enjoy yourself.

    This guy is pretty cool though.  Nebulon5 painted up 10 of these glow in the dark veggies for Toy Art Gallery and they go on sale tomorrow (July 3rd) for $125 each.  

    You can also pick up a ton of Deadbeets that were customized by various artists from around the world.  They were featured in a show this past weekend and are now available on the Toy Art Gallery website.
