Yoshi in Canstruction New York

[yoshiyoshi]

My company, RAND Engineering & Architecture, entered an 8-foot version of Yoshi made entirely of food cans for Canstruction New York's 2015 competition. Yoshi was made of 6,114 cans of food that included chicken, corn, chili, carrots, beans, and mixed fruits and won for Best Meal award for the variety of foods used. After the competition, Yoshi went on to feed approximately 4,000 hungry New Yorkers. We and the engineers and architects at RAND who spent weeks designing and constructing him on their own time are very proud of him.

Yoshi is up for Canstruction's International People's Choice Award. Please vote for us on facebook by liking our photo: http://bit.ly/1V4caG9 The photo with the most amount of likes by April 22 wins!

I like most how the proportions are still intact despite being ban out of cans, that's neat
