Do you absentmindedly chew your pen while reading? Dutch designer Dave Hakkens does and, apparently, he got tired of the taste of plastic and ink in his mouth, so he created an edible pen in different flavors. At the link, photos and step by step descriptions of how he reached his goal: a pen that melts in your mouth.

For the past decade and a half I have been making all my content available for free (and never behind a paywall) as an ongoing practice of ephemeral publishing. This site is no exception. If you wish to help offset my labor costs, you can donate on Paypal or you can subscribe to Patreon where I will not be putting my posts behind a lock but you'd be helping me continue making this work available for everyone. Thank you.  Follow me on Twitter for new post updates.
