“We’ve all heard the saying “one man’s trash is another man’s treasure,” but France-based artist Sandrine Estrade Boulet takes the idiom and turns everyday trash into a treasure for everyone to experience. The visual artist, who lives and works in Boulogne Billanourt, captures average streets littered with trash and foliage and digitally transforms them into fun, high-spirited images. She takes mundane scenes from life and reinterprets them by adding limbs and faces to inanimate objects, breathing a refreshingly jovial new life into them.
Boulet’s playful outlook on life reinvents the urban world. A pile of garbage bags waiting to be picked up by the sanitation truck is enlivened simply by the addition of a pair of cartoonish arms extending from their crumpled bodies. A patch of greenery peeking out of a crack in the pavement is re-envisioned as a cheerleader’s pom pom energetically thrust into the air. Through the artist’s surreal view of the world, the shape and form of each city figure is reassigned to a new entity.
There’s something to be said about finding the fun in litter and the ordinary. In addition to her city re-imaginings, Boulet adds her touch of humorous and entertaining art to photos of nature and kids.”

“This monster snack is the world’s meatiest sandwich - crammed from bottom to top with 41 different cuts of meat including sausages, ham, turkey and - of course - bacon. Before you tuck in you ought to have planned for a long lunch break as this megawich will take an overwhelming ten hours to eat.
The massive sarnie, dubbed a ‘carnivore’s dream’, stands a whopping 15 inches high, 24 inches wide and tips the scales at more than two stones (28 lbs). It contains 1,445 grams (3 lbs) of ham, two kilograms (2.2 lbs) of salami, turkey and bacon, one kilogram of sausages and 720 grams (1.5 lbs) of chorizo. Hidden among the meat is cheese and gherkins and if you look carefully you might even be able to spot some salad between the cuts.
It was made by British chef and restaurateur Tristan Welch to mark the launch of TV programme Man v. Food Nation on Food Network UK. The new show sees host Adam Richman travelling through the United States encouraging people to take on daring food challenges. Luckily for all meat lovers Mr Welch has shared the recipe online so that brave diners can take on the challenge at home.”
