VW's edible road print ad. Yes, you can eat it.
(click image, via) Ingredients, according to the agency press note: glutinous rice flour, water, salt, propylene glycol, FD&C colour, glycerine. Yeah, no. If I die/get violently ill, is VW liable? Placed in April's Auto Trader magazine. Ad agency: Ogilvy, Cape Town, South Africa. Related: BMW's new car smell print ad.

i don't quite like being ordered to 'eat it', but interesting concept.
i can see adding flavorings to the 'paper' and using that in a 'taste our new flavor' ad campaign.
I-)
Who wants to stick their mouth on an ad that been pawed by a thousand newsstand patrons? Gross.
Some people—and I know this is going to sound incredibly pretentious but I assure you it's true—have their magazines delivered directly to their houses.
Some other people ARE pretentious and eat crappy paper ads that are delivered to their homes. Bon appetit!
@anon... the ad is enclosed in a plastic sleeve so don't worry only one or two hands might have pawed it, not a thousand...
