Genius makes a glorious portrait of Mama Coco entirely out of food
This is One Good Thing, a weekly column where we tell you about one of the few nice things that happened this week.
If you love the movie Coco (and if you don't, you're a monster), prepare to cry all over again thanks to this stunning recreation of the film's titular Mama Coco made entirely of food.
It's the work of Laleh Mohmedi, who started getting creative with her son Jacob's meals and made a thing of creating these works of art using food.
The Jacob's Food Diaries Instagram account is full of more of these creations for your enjoyment. And with each photo, Mohmedi details exactly what foods she used to create each plate in case you want to give it a go (good luck).
And if you want another example of a Pixar character that will make you burst into tears, may I suggest Up's Carl?
Every plate, even the one of Heath Ledger's Joker from The Dark Knight, looks stunning and delicious and not at all scary.
Bon appétit and happy sobbing.
