You'll never find a box of Cap'n Crunch or a pack of Slim Jims in a hipster's house. Why? Well, aside from the fact that neither are organic, the colors of the packaging would simply clash too much with all of the other artfully designed products in their food cupboard.
But what would such products look like if they too had the hipster makeover? Well take a look at the pictures below to see for yourself. They were created by Dan Meth, a US artist who's reimagined some of America's most famous snacks as fancy pantsy gourmet food. From Twinkies and Nerds to Fruit by the Foot and Cinnamon Graham Dunkaroos, these rebranded snacks wouldn't look out of place in even the most gentrified household. Which one do you like the most? Let us know in the comments below!

Slim Jim
I think the packaging on the left probably keeps them fresher, however packaging on right is fancy af
Twinkies
Fruit By The Foot
Cap’n Crunch
Nerds
Yes, but here is a VITAL question, in the packaging on the right, are they separated by color? Because the ingenious design of the one on the left is that you can open the sides to eat the colors individually, or if you like to live dangerously, you can mix them
Four Loko
Dunkaroos
You could also say that by having a more unique/special packaging people will take more time to actually properly taste and enjoy these snacks and thus increasing their value. What I would also find interesting is a post where we would repackage expensive food/drinks as junk food like caviar or old whiskey's in a basic can.
Soon everyone will be buying the fancier packaged versions and the hipsters will want the junky looking packaging, it's a cycle
Hipsters will buy/do anything so long as no one else is. Once they find out there are more than 10 people interested in a topic, they lose interest. One way to give a hipster a heart attack is to mention that you've heard of the band/food/store they're talking about. They'll flip out!
