C.O. Presents: Cuisine of the World!

What's the perfect complement to Swiss cheese?  Swiss bread, of course!  Rarely seen outside the Alps, Brot voller Löcher is a hearty, whole-grain bread with an unusual pattern of Swiss cheese-like holes.  Locals say it's good luck when the holes in your bread-and-cheese sandwich align perfectly.  But while Swiss cheese gets its holes from naturally-occurring pockets of trapped gas, Swiss bread requires a more laborious process...

I think I'll just have the salad, Zana F.

I'm not sure if this pic is really cute or kinda gross. [Shifty eyes] I think it's a case of the photographer being RIGHT BEHIND this 'tocktacular scene... right!?

Dani F., ostriches and giraffe knobby knees—what an awesome combo.

Christine, I hope that's you driving away in the yellow bug. Far, far away.

[Say in Pepé le Pew voice] "Ah, my little darling, it is love at first sight, is it not, no?"

"Eef you 'ave not tried eet, do not knock eet.

I tell you what. You stop resisting me, and I, I will stop resisting you. When have you had a better offer than that?"

"You know, sometimes I ask myself 'Ees eet worth eet?' and I answer myself 'YEEEES! EET EES WORTH EET!' VIVA L'AMOUR" Mei-Li P.! Pépe le Peu quotes from Big Cartoon Forum.

CO on the Can

One of our favorite things is to browse Gizmodo and see detailed photos of shiny new Appleness. Coming in close second is browsing sites and seeing mention of Cute Overload.  Imagine our joy at seeing Cute Overload *on* a shiny new Apple MacBook Air *on* Gizmodo!  ...I'm feeling faint...

Wait...

Is that small bathroom-sized trash can?  Is that toilet paper, which is often disposed of in a, whaddyacallit, a toilet?  Is that a toilet bowl brush you might find near, you know, a toilet?

Oh, gross!  Where do you draw the line, guys?  In the future, please view Cute Overload at the appropriate place and time, which is AT YOUR OFFICE DESK while on company time.

You just couldn't wait, could you, Jason Chen?
