Sorry, Charlie – You didn’t measure up

This is fantastic! A StarKist branded tape measure in the shape of a tuna can. How can you not love this?

The WikiPedia page for Charlie the Tuna notes: “During the production of the 2018 film The Shape of Water, director Guillermo Del Toro remarked of the creature of the film “[The] character is called ‘Charlie’ on the call-sheet by reference to the StarKist mascot Charlie the Tuna. ‘We wanted to play the ad on TV,’ he says, ‘but StarKist didn’t want to have anything to do with a movie like this. “

Haha, you’re too good to be associated with an Oscar-winning Best Picture, but you’ll market yourself with a tape measure. OK, to be fair, the tape measure is pretty cool.

  1. I love this! Since tuna is a weight-loss staple food, it might also be a reference to shrinking measurements.
