When Pets And Animals Look Strangely Like Food

Graphic DesignWhen Pets And Animals Look Strangely Like Food


We often say pets look like their owner. But ever noticed some animals have an uncanny likeness to fruits, foods, and desserts? Probably not.

But that kind of crazy (creative) thinking is what often powers our community here at DesignCrowd. So when we hosted a contest asking for Photoshopped creations of animal-food cross breeds, it was no surprise we were inundated with a bunch of hilarious suggestions.

From adding extra food-based features and tasty traits through to seamlessly incorporating odd animals into dishes, there was a menagerie of mad meals.

Ever fancied a loaf of hippo or seen a seal swimming in your soup? Well now’s your chance. Scroll down to see some of the best entries to our contest or visit the gallery to see the whole line-up.

Disclaimer – no animals were harmed in the making of these images, and we do not endorse trying to rustle up any of these ‘recipes’.
