A map of the New York Subway system used to satirize the food culture of New York. Each stop is a humorous reference of one sort or another, from Chopped Liver on the Lower East Side to Mixed Nuts on the Upper West Side and Cooked Books on Wall Street. Inset images include the Swedish Meatball Building, The Great Food Pyramids of the Bronx, and an Heimlich-spoof illustration of "What to do when someone is choking you on the subway."
