Dave's Thick And Juicy

 

So my husband and I went to Wendy's to try Dave's beefy burger. Honestly we were impressed, attention to detail was definitely there in packaging and flavor. Real flavor, real food, and a cute box totally worth $5.

Loose the pouch!

 

I was amazed at how durable and eye catching this ketchup packing was, go Heinz for being innovative.

Smartwool Socks Packaging

Cute and sweet, and makes a statement without creating a lot of waste. Find these socks and its eye catching packaging at your local sports store.

Late July Packaging

Late July is the organic branch to the Cape Cod potato chip company. The Cape Cod and Chatham Village company was started in the 80's and 90's by the Bernard family. Since then they have been able to produce and sell delicious, sustainable, and responsible products.

Shown here is a view of their chip line, but Late July also makes sandwich crackers (the cracker packaging is just as beautiful). I haven't purchased any Late July crackers but I've heard that some crackers are shaped like animals and collect proceeds to help protect the animals they are shaped. One more example from Late July of great design.

Wrapped up for Christmas?

You know when you see a hefty price tag and you know most off your money is going towards packaging, well this bottle is proof of that. Don't get me wrong this bottle has great shape, a fancy cap, and a lovely embossed leather wrapping. But I think this might be a bit much because I'm also curious if this rum actually tastes good, the bottle is so pretty I have to wonder if they're hiding something.

Update: Although I was previously looking at this rum as expensive because of the packaging, it recently went on sale and it is actually pretty good. It got my attention with the design which was a good thing but so did the price. Would it be sad to say that I would be more willing to buy this rum for the same price if it didn't have that leather looking belt?

Soda Pop packaging

Fizzy Lizzy is all-natural blend of whole fruit juice and sparkling water with a cute design, she got me to buy the cranberry one.

Halo packaging like Gameplay

Someone is going to get this awesome package, or um, awesome video game for the holidays. This design is taken right from game play. Supposedly these crates are what game players of Halo receive to prolong life, they contain items such as food, supplies, portable generators, armored boots and more. I think its a great concept that goods in the game come just like goods on Christmas day.

Left Hand Brewery

Another great beer packaging. You should also see their website. http://www.lefthandbrewing.com/

Festive Magic Hat Packaging

MagicHat is known for their fantastic art, with their psychedelic, colorful, and eye-catching style they impress again. Magic Hat just come out with their winter sampler pack. Within this green and lovely Magic Hat box they have a delicious selection of hibiscus odd notion, the infamous #9, Encore, an IPA on tour, and Howl winter lager. But, back to this box again, so great and beautiful I had to talk my husband into getting it just so we can store our homebrews in it forever and ever.
I must recommend that you visit Magic Hat's brewery. It's a brewery that has a mean focus on design; with a dark gift shop of black lights, fun taps, and awesome items.
Magic Hat employs two designers for their trippy artwork, from posters, packaging, apparel and so much more. My husband remembers them telling us that one of the designers worked for the Grateful Dead, super cool, I'll believe it.
