Not a few folk have been trying to cash in on Star Wars fever to further their campaigns. MoveOn have their Save the Republic soapbox. Best to date, though, is one following in the footsteps of The Meatrix . Grocery Store Wars is chock full of puns for those strong with The Force. For those who’ve been untouched by Star Wars, it has visual gags far funnier than a cheap short film about vegetables has any right to. Star Wars and organic food. Who could ask for anything more? Well, me. If you’re going to bring down the military-industrial-food complex, it’s going to take a little more than picking up organic food off the shelves. It’s like shopping in the Death Star. But, at the end of the day, it’s a movie funded by the Organic Trade Association. Clearly a bunch of trekkies. [Via Tom.]
