FAQ
| Why haven't I gotten my order yet? |
|---|
| During the Leftover Sales period, we will be fulfilling orders on a weekly basis. This includes Digital Orders. If a week has passed and you still haven't received an update, please don't hesitate to reach out to us through DM, email, or the Contact form on our store's site. |
| Is this project NSFW? |
|---|
| All You Can Eat is a non-explicit project despite containing some lewd content. However, it is safe to say that a large quantity of our pieces could be considered "Not Safe For Work" because of this. |
| Is this for profit or charity? |
|---|
| All You Can Eat is a for-profit project. |
| Is there 'ship' content? |
|---|
| No. The calendar features only characters from Fat Gum's agency: Toyomitsu Taishiro, Amajiki Tamaki, Kirishima Eijirou, and Tetsutetsu Tetsutetsu. While some pages spotlight multiple characters, it is in a strictly platonic sense. |
| What age are the characters depicted? |
|---|
| Due to the suggestive nature of this project, all characters are depicted as 18+ |
| How many contributors are there? |
|---|
| We have 12 Page Artists and 5 Merch Artists in our kitchen! |
| Is there written content? |
|---|
| As this is a fandom calendar project, we don't have any written content. |
| Is this project physical or digital? |
|---|
| The bulk of the project — the calendar and its main merch — is physical, although we have digital options in our Store (and a lot of digital merch!) if that's more your speed. |
CARE INSTRUCTIONS
Hello and welcome, proud new owner of our Chef Gum plush designed by berryheroic!These instructions are far from extensive, but we did our best to put together a general guide that can be referenced as needed.
Unboxing
When first unpacking your plush, you may need to do some general maintenance before he's kitchen-ready.✧ Some of our plushies squeezed in a little too close to their friends on their way from the manu, so their heads may need to be reshaped. This can easily be done by massaging it into a fuller, rounder shape with your hands.✧ The takoyaki stick in Gum's hood has a small wire in it, so if it gets bent out of shape, you can gently straighten it and angle it however you like!✧ Your plush may have some plastic remnants visible around heavily-embroidered areas like the face and hands. These can be removed with tweezers for a cleaner look!
Maintaining
✧ General upkeep can be done using a lint roller or tape to clean up fur, dust, and other random fuzzies. The more often you do this, the nicer and brighter his fabric will be over time.✧ If he makes a mess in the kitchen and gets covered in a lot of a dry substance — sugar, flour, cheeto dust, etc. — be careful not to rub it in further. Lightly brush or blow away the excess and then use a damp washcloth to gently blot the material. Let him air dry or sun dry somewhere with low humidity.✧ If his velcro gets crowded with thread, hair, fur, etc., it can be cleaned with a small wire brush, a sewing needle, or a safety pin. Remember to be gentle, as overworking the hooks can make their hold weaker.
Cleaning
While Chef Gum is a hardy boy, you should try to keep your deep cleaning to a minimum.Most smudges or spills can probably be spot-treated with a soapy washcloth and cold or warm water (hot water is known to set most stains).Gentle detergents or Dawn dish soap work best for spot-treating, while Tide pens and Shout wipes work well for particularly stubborn stains.
✧ USE THE INTERNET! ✧
Every stain is unique and might benefit from a different treatment. Do the proper research to make sure you're doing what's best for your plush!
Handwashing and machine wash cycles are not recommended due to how tightly packed Chef Gum's polyfill is. Fully soaking him makes it much harder for him to effectively dry.
While we suggest avoiding machines, he is sturdy enough to survive a trip or two.
✧ We recommend removing his clothing first and putting it into a mesh bag to keep it all together. His shoes are particularly small and might get trapped in the smaller holes and crevices of a washing machine!
✧ Use the delicate cycle with cold water and very minimal soaps as needed.✧ Tumble dry on low heat — multiple times if necessary. Taking longer to dry with a lower setting is much safer for the plush than speeding through it on high heat!
If you do handwash Chef Gum and want to avoid a dryer, be very thorough in squeezing out the water once done (and make sure it runs clear and sudsless first). Wringing him out will put strain on the seams and may misshape his stuffing, so isolated squishing/squeezing is recommended for clearing out water.After, towel off or use a hair dryer to remove surface water and put him somewhere warm and dry. Rotate and flip him periodically for a more thorough and even drying. This will take time!
