 Cuitlacochetango This is a custom I did for my very good friends Lance (Skullbrain ID "Head") and Becky.
I don't have a picture of the can, but it's based on a food from Mexico called
"Cuitlacoche" which is basically a very weird grey fungus derived from corn .
It looks weird, but I think it's a most incredible custom idea once you realize what's going on.
Deep Wikkid ass.

That's excellent Paul. So is the fungus spread on something, used as an ingredient, eaten on the corn . . . what's the deal with it?

It looks like solid, small, mushrooms.
It actually looks more like the original Matango fungus from the movie.
You will know as soon as I find a can of this stuff to pop and drop.
If I can get better pics of the can,I'll post it.
It's really weird. But this can is a tad old to eat!

"Cuitlacoche" is delicacy also know as a corn truffle. They make a mighty tasty tamale with'em.
Anyways, Munsters are on TVland.

Fantastic and an awesome concept.
For more information on Cuitlacoche and an absolutely hilarious read go here:

Not for the faint of heart perhaps, but totally hilarious and actually very well written.

Anyways, Munsters are on TVland. I love the Munsters and I love that Custom, the colors look amazing, and that's very cool that it's a weird fungus toy with a paint job based on a weird fungus.
