Nothing is as viral as photos of people in bathtubs filled with food.
First, I believe there was a photo of a woman in a tub of cheese doodles in a bath tub, which I believe scorched the Internet in late 90s.
Then Whoopi worked with the rock star photographer Anne Leibowtiz to put her in a bathtub filled with milk.
Not sure what the thinking was behind that, except perhaps the 1999 milk mustache campaign didn’t go far enough to express the comedian’s love of the drink.
And then there’s the next logical conclusion after a bathtub filled with milk: a bathtub filled with cereal as done by Ted Murphy. (Ted is promoting his blog by giving away a year’s worth of cereal.)
All in a all, I would say that the Internet, if nothing else, provides a speedy vehicle for pictures of food, bathtubs and the people that enjoy them.
UPDATE
Reader Bill Weye pointed out that Dita Von Teese was featured in a bathtub of candy for Chocolate Altoids.
Hey, Christopher, I have one more shot for you, Dita von Teese in a bathtub of chocolate Altoids. Being a big Dita fan myself, I like the ad!
@Bill Weye: Thanks for information! Going to be updating the blog post to include it.
