Bike In Food

No, not as in stick the tire in your soup. More like, see attached. You will find an image of a bicycle on this wine label. The wine is even called Bicicleta. Who knows of other foods that are imbued with bicycling images or references?

That is really interesting, as Jeff pointed out - our only references thus far in a sample of 5 are to booze! What does that say? Are bikers more prone to drinking? Are these the personal associations or interests of today's brewers, or have marketing companies recommended them? Have the old associations of a good drink with a slow burning cigar now been replaced by healthier ones in our modern era? Or biking associates with the "good old days of quality when we had time to sit back and enjoy a nice beer or wine?" How to explain this?

It's very easy to hide images of animals, aliens, faces, monsters, skulls, angels, devils,... in a graphic of a bicycle.....?

Loved the bicycle wheels. I cracked up seeing that one. I also cracked up because at first I read "Anu's Kitchen" without the apostrophe! But it seems I am not alone! The address of the website itself replaced the "S" with a "Z" to make sure no one mispronounced it, giggle icon!
