Eight Items or Less: Meatwater Has Arrived, Justice Has a Clothing Line and Tao Has Best Bottle Service
By Gary Pini

1. Brooklyn photographer Till Krautkramer is probably not a vegetarian. His current leave-behind is a hilarious sampler of various "Meatwater" flavors including Peking duck, cheeseburger and beef stroganoff. Our favorite: dirty hot dog, "an authentic taste of the Big Apple you can drink through a straw". Sample them all here: www.dinnerinabottle.com
2. More wacky products (all from the idle minds of musicians):
- a clothing line from Justice in collaboration with Surface to Air
- Jermaine Dupri and Procter & Gamble's Tag Records tie-in with Tag deodorant
- rapper Lil Jon's winery
- Marilyn Manson Absinthe (this one just won a gold medal at the San Francisco World Spirit Awards)



3. Speaking of awards, the winners of the 6th Annual Club World Awards were just announced in Miami during the Winter Music Conference. Tao in Las Vegas walked away with "Best Bottle Service" award. More absinthe please.
4. If the idea of recycling your old fur coat by turning it into a teddy bear creeps you out, do not go here: www.reminkiebears.com
5. Because we are the go-to site for important holidays: 2008 is the United Nations International Year of the Potato.
6. Last night, we went to a screening of the 2008 Sundance hit Hamlet 2 -- starring Steve Coogan -- and laughed our asses off.
