These [Facebook](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/rival-peak) Chocolates are a creation of UQAM student Audrey Wells. The chocolate's packaging is made from randomly-chosen friend's profiles. I don't know about you, but I'm not entirely sure which one of my friends or frenemies I'd want to eat.

Social media has poured out of the Internet and into our day-to-day lives, and it's often the subject or inspiration for artists and designers. Facebook Chocolate is an example of how innovations inspire each other, and this quirky idea is a pretty good one.
