The Canned Cheeseburger from Swissland
I swear that I will not buy this, I rather eat the McDonalds, but it is really in the market.
The entire cheeseburger comes in the can. You just boil the can for a few minutes and pop it open.
This comes from a company called Katadyn, a Swiss-based company that primarily deals with mobile water sterilization and desalination equipment. Until now. Now they are focused on strange MREs. They have a powdered wine that when reconstituted has an alcohol content of over 9%, a chocolate mousse, and of course the burger in a can. They all supposedly have a shelf life of 12 months.
Gross.

The Truth of Durex Condom Tester
Sometime ago, Durex Australia put up a recruitment ad, looking for Energetic men who has strong desire to improve their sex-life by bed testing a number of their products (condoms). The successful applicants stand a chance to win AU$1000 in cash!! Sorry, the application has closed.
While in the real life, condom testing is quite a boring job. You will need to examine every piece of “Balloon” to make sure it is not Leaking, or you know the consequences…
