What a great idea for a radio...

Is it a radio or is it that precious box of macaroni & cheese you lost in the cupboard years ago, not sure what they were thinking when they came out with this thing....

It's a promotional advertising item. Have seen radios that looked like soda cans, soda machines, Goodyear tires, gas pumps, etc.

Yeah, they are a bit silly. Have seen cheap telephones done the same way.
Here's an old Pepsi radio btw...
