Found: Little Heads in the Broccoli

Don't worry, this is hardly as disturbing as finding a severed finger -- or even pretending to find a human finger -- in your Wendy's Chili.

It seems that for years, Cascadian Farm's frozen food labels have featured tiny little heads on the packaging, so small they can only be seen by people who firmly believe subliminal advertising is rotting their brains.

Look in the forest of broccoli, perhaps with a magnifying glass and you will see these microscopic vegetable gnomes. The Bread and Honey blog pointed this out (found via Weird Universe), and recently got this reply:

"The tradition of hiding names or faces on Cascadian Farm packaging began over a dozen years ago," said Leah Giovanni. "It was unspoken tribute by the package design department to the friends & family of Cascadian Farm. The faces won’t be included on our redesigned packaging."

I had to rush down to my local Food Emporium, and see it for myself. And I could hear the little heads laughing at me. I handled the package so long, I felt compelled to buy it.

You win this round, Cascadian Farm. Guess what I'm having for lunch.
