Artist Daizi Zheng repackages health food for the addict in all of us
The world is getting fatter and Daizi Zheng aims to put a stop to it. Zheng cleverly re-packages fruits and vegetables to look like the vices we know and love.

Although these items are strictly for aesthetic value, they may get people to think about why they consume what they do and rethink what they are putting in their bodies.
