Wrong. Wrong, wrong, wrong. That's almost all I can think after seeing the Mouth Cup, being sold on Etsy by Autumn Higgins. The person who can drink their morning coffee out of this cup has a stronger stomach than I.
When the cup is flipped over, it looks like a strange piece of art. Unusual, not particularly attractive, but not the stuff of nightmares. But everything changes when it's coffee time.
Implications - So say goodbye to your reliable old stainless steel tumbler and pick up one of these mutant-faced water holders. Who knows, maybe this is the perfect practice tool for when you will have to drink out of some one's mouth in real life?!
