This is just one of the items in a range of delicious accessories designed for meat lovers.
If you ever wanted to turn heads and make people’s mouths water as you walk by them on the street, there’s no easier way to do it than with a meaty backpack. This new product is the latest to join the weird and whacky rucksack range from quirky Japanese novelty goods store Village Vanguard, who previously thrilled us with their raw meat bag earlier this year.
Now the backpack has progressed in the cooking process, developing a deliciously seared golden brown colour that makes it look just about ready for eating.
▼ The thick slab of steak comes with a pair of soft brown straps so you can carry it around in maximum comfort.
▼ And unlike your ordinary cut of meat, this one opens up to carry everything you need for the day, complete with inner pockets.
Given its size, the meaty bag is a bargain at 2,160 yen (US$21.52). While it’s designed to be worn in summer, when the butter-topped serving would appear to sizzle in the sun, it’s still a top accessory for any time of the year!
And for customers who prefer to keep their meat fandom within the confines of the home, the delicious steak is also available as a plump, tender cushion.
If you’ve always dreamed of laying your head on a juicy piece of meat, this succulent looking cushion will give you enough meat sweats to last a lifetime.
▼ Also available in a raw meat version, the cushions retail for 2,160 yen each.
The meaty range is becoming increasingly popular with customers, so if your tastes tend towards the carnivorous variety, be sure to stop by the Village Vanguard online store before they all sell out!
