This song by Parry Gripp might make a few screws come loose in your brain, but this cute animated video by Nathan Mazur of various bug-eyed animals (along with a robot and Abraham Lincoln) chewing their food makes it worth watching. My favorite is the fish—it's just so darn happy to be eating those flakes. Watch the video after the jump....

Le Café by French band Odelaf & Monsieur D. tells the tale of a man who starts his day off with a nice cup of coffee. Then adds another cup. And another. And...another. And with each new cup of coffee he drinks, a little bit of his brain is destroyed until he dissolves into a complete lunatic. If you can relate to this story, you might need to cut down on your coffee consumption. Watch the madness unfold in this animated video directed by Stephanie Marguerite and Emilie Tarascou of the Art School of Angouleme (EMCA), after the jump....

Mike is a penguin. A mostly sad penguin. He spends his days getting beat up in boxing matches, crying over his lost love, and staring out the window as dead leaves fall to the ground. And you know what they say: When you're a penguin suffering from a bout of depression, just kick back with a frosty can of Suntory Beer! I can't watch these commercials without laughing, even though it seems wrong to laugh at the increasingly doomful plight of a cute, animated penguin. These commercials featuring Suntory's rotund mascot were so popular that they led to a full-length movie called Penguin Memories. What memories, you ask? Oh... the ones about the Vietnam War. Yes, it's a war...

"Sandwich, sandwich, I'm in love with you," sings Parry Gripp in his song "Sandwich." But as much as he loves this sandwich, he doesn't really go into the specifics about the relationship. Whether or not you want to know, Edd Gould fills the gaps with his animation of the song depicting a day in the life of a man and his beloved sandwich. See-saw, milkshake, sunset—you know, the works. Watch the video after the jump....

Food Safety Music is the creation of Dr. Carl Winter of the University of California at Davis. By listening to Winter's songs and watching his music videos, you can learn about bacterial contamination, irradiation, pesticides, and more! His parodies may be silly, but they're more fun than taking a typical food safety class (I should know; I've taken a few of those classes). Watch his video for Stomachache Tonight about the dangers of undercooked chicken, after the jump....

When I first came across Frito Lay's Made For Each Other campaign to promote their dips and chips, my first thought was of slight confusion: "Soo...where are the dips and chips?" But then I watched their animated, mildly branded commercials and got sucked in by the cute and whimsical characters, besides that they're just well done. I may not be any more likely to eat Frito Lay chips after watching these commercials, but I do now associate Frito Lay with cute animations. Watch the videos after the jump....

The reasoning behind February 3rd's designation as National Carrot Cake Day probably had something to do with it also being National Carrot Day. Oh. If only we knew that two days ago. This cute video from body care company Yes to Carrots features animated, singing carrots telling you facts (and some non-facts) about carrots. But the video immediately reminded me of a cuter animation I first saw a few years ago featuring carrots singing in Korean. Did it inspire the later video, or are there only so many ways to draw anthropomorphic singing carrots? Watch the videos after the jump....

EVE from the animated film Wall-E, with all her scanners and endearing Mac boot-up jingle, is so cute, you kind of want to eat her. And if you like eggs, now you can. [via All Things Pixar] Related: EVE Birthday Cupcakes [Photograzing]...

Aw, it's a town populated by pickles singing pickle-themed songs, walking their pickle dogs, throwing snowballs, and ice skating without a care in the world. What could possibly go wrong in such a wholesome, picture-perfect—HOLY MOTHER OF GOD, WHAT IS THAT GIANT HAND DOING? Run, little pickles, run! Watch the video after the jump....
