# Fatal Fruit Alphabets Philip Tseng Has Created an Alphabet from Killed Fruits By Yanis Rudzitis | Published 2011-02-14 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Funny-Killer-Alphabets References: [minicubby](http://www.minicubby.com/index.php?/alphadeath/) & [minicubby](http://www.minicubby.com/) Designer and illustrator Philip Tseng has created a morbid take on the alphabet that features [fruits and vegetables](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pumpui) being killed. Each letter is represented by a different, colorful picture showing a fruit or vegetable killed in a different way, being it sliced in to pieces, peeled or [dipped onto jam or chocolate](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tru-fru-1). I don’t think this is the best way of teaching your kids how to read, but this Philip Tseng alphabet sure is one of the best and funniest designs I have ever seen. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.9/10 - Popularity: 82% | Activity: 56% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Millennial - Top markets: North America, Europe, Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) > [Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/design) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Morbid Design:** Opportunities to disrupt traditional design with unconventional and shocking themes. - **Edgy Education:** Exploration of alternative and playful ways to teach kids to read and learn without sacrificing creativity and humor. - **Food Artistry:** Innovations in the realm of food art, exploring the visual and symbolic potential of culinary objects beyond their taste and nutritional value. ### Who This Affects Most - **Children's Education:** Developing engaging and imaginative curriculum for teaching children to read and learn in exciting and unconventional ways. - **Graphic Design:** Creating boldly themed designs that challenge conventional aesthetic norms and push the boundaries of creativity and shock value. - **Fine Dining:** Incorporating artistic and playful presentations of food into high-end dining experiences as a way to enhance the sensory and aesthetic satisfaction of customers. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Fruit Waste Ink Posters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-waste-ink.md) - [Fruit-Inspired Furniture Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruitinspired-furniture-collection.md) - [Quirky Snack-Inspired Fonts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cheetos-other-hand-font.md) - [Edgy Gut Health Beverages](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/killer-fruit.md) - [Fruit-Inspired Design Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/soft-grounds.md) - [Fruit-Themed Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruitz-1.md) - [Alphabet Learning Tools](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/alfabird.md) - [Tri-Textured Fruit Cups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bubble-fruit-gel.md) - [Instant Noodle-Crafted Fonts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/times-new-ramen.md)
