This Artist Draws On Food To Make It Look Like Completely Different Food

Ever since that stupid black and blue dress freaked out everybody, it seems like people have been looking for more optical illusions to piss them off.

This one’s not that bad, but it’ll still make you cringe a little. Japanese artist Hikaro Cho has found clever ways to draw on certain foods, making them look like something completely different.

Some of the foods might not look completely real in their drawn form, but that’s good, because it actually isn’t what it appears to be anyway.

Check out the reveals below as this 21-year-old artist from the Musashino Art University in Tokyo makes you question everything:

I know what you’re thinking, this is obviously a tiny voodoo head that was compressed by a witch doctor.
