The Most Disgusting Cartoon-Themed Snacks from Your Childhood

Um, disgusting according to who?  I'm pretty sure that I actually somewhat liked most of these treats.  I don't remember the superhero ice cream pictured above, though.

Houses made out of Heineken beer bricks

Back in the 60s and 70s, Heineken had the idea of using beer bricks for construction in countries that lacked affordable building materials.  It didn't pan out.

The final WOBO design came in two sizes – 350 and 500 mm versions that were meant to lay horizontally, interlock and layout in the same manner as ‘brick and mortar’ construction. One production run in 1963 yielded 100,000 bottles some of which were used to build a small shed on Mr. Heineken’s estate in Noordwijk, Netherlands. One of the construction challenges “was to find a way in which corners and openings could be made without cutting bottles,” said Mr. Habraken.

Alex James really likes cheese

Here's a funny article about Alex James' (ex-bassist for Blur) obnoxious new memoir about how much he loves cheese.

Naturally, I need hardly ask if you realised that our hero likes cheese. James's fondness for cheese is believed to be a matter of which no one in this earthly sphere is unaware. For a time, it was assumed that there were some remote peoples still untouched by his rennet-based droning, but in that recent aerial footage of the uncontacted Amazon society, the tribe was seen to have arranged a collection of bones and earthenware shards into the words: "PLEASE STOP ALEX JAMES GOING ON ABOUT BLOODY CHEESE."
