Packed Lunch


March 26, 2010


Remember when the only way to carry Word documents with you was in an actual folder or a floppy disc? Since those days of yore, technology has made a few, high-tech advances — to say the least.

Most people now carry a USB key with them at all times. I have several — all of which look exactly the same. I’ve been in a rush to print out a document and terribly irritated to discover that I’ve been looking for it in the wrong USB key on multiple occasions.

Luckily for me, and for other scatterbrained technics out there, I’ve found a deliciously simple solution to the all-too-frustrating USB shuffle: 
USB keys shaped like food!



These yummy-looking storage devices look like anything from fresh sushi and french fries to BBQ pork. Not only will you be able to distinguish what files are saved in which USB key (for example, photos can go in the chicken drumstick, and Word documents can be saved in the slice of pizza), but you will never forget to go on your lunch break ever again — what with the constant reminder poking out of your CPU.
