'Marihuana' Restaurant in Taiwan Uses Smokin' Branding
References: marihuana.tw & weirdasianews
Inexplicably, a fast food restaurant in Taiwan has called itself 'Marihuana.' And it has NOTHING to do with drugs, just a normal legal fast food outlet.
Food and weed inevitably go hand in hand, like love and marriage, but in this case, it has gone a bit wrong. Still, it's brilliant. I totally love the ‘leaf’ image the restaurant uses; surely this has got to have collector's value. I mean, look at the cute child who appears to be drinking a space shake (but is of course not.)
