Some facts about this handmade postcard make me love it:

• The addition of the little piece of fabric that makes it original and realistic.
• The portions are incredibly big: 33g!
• It is a new brand (for me, of course). I don't know how this word is pronounced in Hungarian, but in my language maco means 'beautiful'. And the bear looks very elegant, don't you agree?
• By the way... Why in Hungary they like so much bears appearing in cheese boxes?
• The illustration uses the recursion as well as the VQR illustrations do. Mise en abyme or recursion or Droste effect is an artistic technique in which a image contains a smaller copy of itself, in a sequence appearing to recur infinitely. In theory, of course. Practically it continues only as long as the resolution of the picture allows. But we can imagine bear-waiters forever...
