Some kids will eat anything and everything. And by some, I mean basically none. Any parent will attest to the fact that kids can be a nightmare when it comes to eating; most are incredibly picky and limit themselves to one or two things — usually chicken nuggets and chips, and nothing with any nutritional value. Mealtimes become a battle, usually ending up with kids going on hunger strikes and parents inevitably giving in and admitting defeat. One Japenese mom decided to combat this issue by turning her picky daughter's food into animated works of art to get her to eat healthily. Whether it's eggs in the shape of Winnie the Pooh or sushi snowmen, we're sure her daughter scoffs her mother's food down pretty quickly. Check out her incredible talent below.

Bread is one of life's greatest gifts. Whoever discovered that if you mix flour and yeast, then add some heat, you can create a doughy lump of heaven, should have been King. But gone are the days when a simple load of bread was enough; today, bread is a blank canvas with which you can do all sorts of magical things. One Japanese baker - @konel_bread - has adopted this philosophy and is creating loaves of bread with incredible designs in the middle. From cartoon characters to leopard print, each of her loaves of bread is a beautifully intricate piece of art. Scroll through and be amazed at her talent, but beware, you will be drooling!
Well, let's just say this woman from Japan is actually sitting on a ticking time bomb. Her Instagram account @gomi_sutero, which means "throw away your trash" in Japanese and followed by close to a half a million followers, chronicles life with her messy husband - who apparently still doesn't know his filth is being documented for the world's curious eyes. All the pictures are of her husband's garbage that he leaves around the house and we can't relate anymore.
What seems like an innocent and cute design has going horribly wrong -- and in so many ways!
Do you think the Japanese designers behind this product didn't realize all these alternative views of their design, or was it intention? Either way, the cup has gone viral and as they say, 'There is no such thing as bad publicity.'
An oldie of a Tumblr post but still very much relevant and important. When a mom from Utah, posted on her blog about a Japanese-themed party she threw for her daughter, Tumblr somehow got a hold of it and started dragging the mom for encouraging racism. Then commenters started stepping in, one of which who was actually Japanese, decided to set the record straight.
When Twitter user @balqis_sidiqia recently shared this cartoon of a mom doing everything on her own while dad doing nothing, it got a lot of attention. The clip is originally from a Japanese anime series – Crayon Shin-chan – written and illustrated by Yoshito Usui.
Who said that the young rule the internet? 89 years old Japanese grandma, Kimiko Nishimito, actually never knew she loved photography and that she was pretty good at it until the age of 72. Her son was teaching a class about photography and she decided to join in and listen. From that moment on, she found out not only that she loves to take pictures and goof around, but that she actually handles the camera better than most. Ever since, she has been taking hilarious selfies that won the internet and even got her a solo exhibition at a museum in her home town of Kumamoto.
