'Midnight Cafe' proves that when it comes to mutation, it is best to leave it to the Ninja Turtles and the X-Men. These ads were created by Christopher Smith for a fictional restaurant that serves mutant food.
I've never been intimidated by food before, but I'd be lying if I said that the confections in 'Midnight Cafe' didn't scare me. Simple food like a cheesburger or muffin can instantly be terrifying if you add a mutant mouth full of sharp teeth to them.
Looks like I won't be eating burgers for awhile -- thanks, 'Midnight Cafe.'
