Smart Spice by Evan Orensten
Spices tend to come in a pretty standard size; they also spoil within a few months of opening. For most home cooks that means a lot of waste and jars of stale spices sitting in a cabinet.
Smart Spice solves this problem by packing its organic spices in several single use servings (four to a box), ensuring that you'll always have a fresh supply on hand.
We're typically not fans of over-convenience and packaging, but in this context the method makes a lot of sense. You'll start seeing Smart Spice's organic herbs, spices, peppercorns and seeds in stores in Fall 2008.

The results are unnervingly realistic with eyes, lips and other details constructed out of cashews, raisins and the like. A lack of hair and blood-like glazes make the work all the more creepy....
