The style of a new generation
July 12, 2000, 12:22 pm
So I’m at the local food fair looking to grab a quick bite. McDonald’s is right out considering my last meal there happened to coincide with a massive food poisoning attack (legal disclaimer - it could have been anything that made me
painfully ill, not necessarily McDonald’s.) so I hit the Taco Time (marginally less likely to kill me).
Always a sucker for plastic fast food cups (they’re great around the office and cheap to lose or destroy), I get the Texas Sized drink, which happens to come in a Pepsi Twist ‘n Go cup for an extra 69 cents. Marveling at the smooth curves of the twist on lid with it’s even fancier twist drink spout, I joke that it was designed by a European design firm.
Imagine my surprise when it turns out it was. Actually, IDEO is technically an international design house, not just
a European design firm. Close enough. I now own two and I’m looking to buy more.
