You remember the ubiquitous Candy Necklace, right? Many of you probably still indulge in edible jewelry now and again. While the Candy Necklace might not have been designer His-Ju Chang’s primary inspiration, she has certainly refined the art. Using the surplus of the world, here’s the solution to global hunger: the Food Necklace!
Chang proposes that the food surplus in “over-consumption” areas of the world be taken, dried out, and used for nutrition balls. These nutrition balls consist of “whole vegetable or fruit including peel and fresh or root and leaves,” and can be prepared for consumption placing them in water, milk, or soup.
In addition, this product can be made into an urban-landscape product (she compares them to tic-tacs) by making them tiny for small meals and snacks.
Designer: His-Ju Chang assisted by Yu-Lei Chu
no comment…
the veg and fruit would be manufactured into powder?!
nutrition balls? lol wot a load of cr4p
isn’t this just mineral cod liver capsule but a veggi version? wouldn’t a pill dispenser be more better?
okay as long as they’re covered in something…. i wouldnt want to eat something that is out carrying all the dust & bacteria of the world & hung around my neck!!
but still………………………. i dunno if i like this concept enough.. i think it needs a better story line. for eg, kinky candies?
Kinky candies as a name for this would imply the food inside the necklace is actually roofies or something o_o
Let’s stray from kinky candies, alright?
Just make it pezz candy bricks. Done.

no sense
hey goofs, this has been done for years. One of my good friends, on a recent trip to india was offered a bead from a necklace to eat. The bead was made of cheese…
