Spotted in Washington, DC: Rap Snacks
posted by Noah at 10:58 AM
I went up to DC last week to attend the Socially Responsible Business of Washington (SBNOW) 2007 Corporate Responsibility & Sustainability Symposium. On my way back to the train station I spotted this bag of "Honey Dew" flavored Rap Snacks at a street vendor.From the bag I learned that:
A. Rap Snacks are "The Official snack of Hip Hop"
B. Rappers don't like Trans Fats (though are apparently fine with a host of preservatives, artificial colors and MSG.)
and
C. Reading is fundamental (though there was no elaboration on this point).

oh man, i've had these! what a hilarious marketing strategy. the only thing that sucks about them is they're so hard to find. i want more more more. however, i do find it funny that Rappers are against Trans Fat, real hardcore.
on a related note, if you're into DJ Battles, everyone in the DC area should check out the Yaris VS Yaris DJ Competition at The Sphinx Club at the Almas Temple on June 21st. it's slated for DJ Sixth Sense to mix and DJ Iran to host. i work with them so i'm trying to get the word out. check out http://www.yarisversusyaris.com for more info if you're interested.
i'm totally digging new talent these days, aren't you?
I'm from DC, do yourself a favor; the next time you pick up a tasty looking bag of Rap Snacks, check the expiration date. Not sure how long this stuff has been sitting around in a warehouse but my Lil' Romeo Rap Snacks bag was almost 2 years "past due."
