SALTY PHILOSOPHY
When you reach into a bag of Funyuns you don’t do so with the expectation of answering all of life’s questions. And yet, when you look over that odd little ring, you start to wonder, is a Funyun a chip? As you stare at that ring, trying to uncover its secrets you begin to spiral into a whirlpool of existential questions. What came first, the chicken or the egg? Where do we go when we die? Does anyone really understand what’s going on with Schrodinger’s cat? And when you finally think you’ve mastered all the questions of the universe, you reach back into that bright yellow bag and find it empty. It’s then that you realize, you know nothing at all.
THE PRINT
THE EXTENSIONS
SNACKOLOGY 101
A series of “Free Philosophy Books” stands will appear on college campuses. What appear to be stacks of regular old books, upon further inspection are actually hollowed out with the answer to all of life’s questions (Funyuns obviously) within them.
VENDING MACHINE PARADOX
A mysterious vending machine pops up in usual vending machine locations. However, rather than presenting food or drink options, the buttons present you with existential questions. No matter the question, the answer is always the same. Funyuns.
THE GREAT DEBATE
We take to instagram to settle the great debate of whether or not a Funyun is a chip. To help argue both sides, we get famous historical figures to state their case. Viewers are then able to vote, is a Funyun a chip?
