Apocalypse: The Soap

August 21, 2008

Have you ever seen the movie Fight Club? One the most disgusting parts of that movie, and there are many, is when Brad Pitt and Ed Norton are digging through the dumpster at a medical clinic to recover bags of liposucked fat. Sure it was all cake mix and Mountain Dew, but the idea of it being real is sick. From this amazing concoction they created soap, which they sold back to buyers who had no clue what they were really buying. I mean, like they were going to indicate that one of the main ingredients was human thigh, belly and ass fat. That said, some people aren’t afraid of what’s in their soap product. Take for instance the Apocalypse by Swedish designers, Jenny Norberg and Petra Liljas, who’ve created soap out of recycled frying pan grease. Nothing like cleaning your mitts with a slice of bacon. Still, very inventive, and eco-friendly!
