What do you do with ten ketchup packets and McDonald's french fries? Make a painting of Morgan Spurlock of course! Or you can take artist Jack Daws' route and build a replica of the Twin Towers using the same ingredients and sell it for $1,500.

I'd eat them, but I'm weird that way.

Well, the ketchup guy paints fast, and all, but he's got nothing on Vik Muniz.

We'll soon find out whether as many insects are drawn to the Daws sculpture as tourists were to the WTC.
I don't care how you shellac it, that ketchup smell is invincible and I bet this art stinks to high heaven.

Weird frame (of final picture) at 1:58.
It's an "image tag", youtubers do that to conrol what frame is used as a thumbnail. You'll notice the finished work is the thumbnail for the video.

This was a pleasant way to spend a few minutes, thanks. They should credit the music though, which is "Express Yourself" by Charles Wright and the 103rd Street Rhythm Band.

There is a small NSFW picture on the Jack Daws' link if you scroll down, just to warn those of you who might be browsing at work.
