I’m not a Snoop Dogg fan and I don’t promote smoking or drug use, but this is a very attractive and original concept. From The Dieline:
Introducing Rolling Words, Snoop Dogg’s smokable songbook. A promotion for Snoop Dogg’s Kingsize Slim Rolling Papers created by San Francisco agency Pereira & O’Dell.
Each page is a rolling paper with Snoop’s greatest songs and lyrics written on them – in non-toxic ink – for your rolling pleasure. The pages are perforated making them easy to detach.
The book is made of hemp-related materials, with the cover, binding, and internal lining all made from hemp seed paper while the spine of the book is a match striking surface.
Rich Brilliant Willing designed this unique trophy for the Core77 Design Awards which doubles as a mold for crayons, wax, jelly and many more materials. The final product was created by Motorola Prototyping Services.

Konapun is a similar item, only the food isn’t edible but the making process often strangely resembles the real thing. No heat is involved in the ‘frying’ and ‘baking’ processes, but the toys use sound effects. The series is unfortunately no longer running, but you can still find some on eBay.
