And here's how that looks in-game.

A display featuring three packages of beef jerky, Stork's peppermint patties, n&n's, and SRittles. On the counter next to it are beef sticks and coffee beans.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 14, 2026, 3:02 PM

Neither Safemilk nor I had any clue what this texture was supposed to be, so we just decided it was chocolate-covered coffee beans.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny package of... something, with a black-and-gold label. To the right, a larger re-imagining of the label: "Coffee Beans with Chocolate Coating. Surgeon General's Warning: If you eat this entire package at once, it may kill you, no foolin' I'd say take your time eating it, but we both know you won't. The ambulance is waiting outside.

This display of meat sticks got an upgrade. I didn't do the full package, just the stickers. Now you can see the fine print in all its glory.

Herrick's and Young & Smith are both subsidiaries of Pentex, from Werewolf: The Apocalypse.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a small display of meat sticks. To the right are six large recreations of the stickers, each individually several times larger than the original texture.

"Certified Grade Z Real Beef Jerky," a 109 sticker, and then four different flavours of Young & Smith Incorporated beef sticks: Teriyaki, original, hot dill, and barbecue

The packages of Beef Jerky were based on what Jack Link's Beef Jerky looked like at the time. Now renamed Jank Lick, I recreated those packages in high res.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a small (black) package of Beef Jerky. In the middle, an example (in red) of Jack Link's Beef Jerky from the era. To the right, a large recreation of the black packaging.

To the left, a small (purple) package of Beef Jerky. In the middle, an example (in red) of Jack Link's Beef Jerky from the era. To the right, a large recreation of the purple packaging.

To the left, a small (orange) package of Beef Jerky. In the middle, an example (in red) of Jack Link's Beef Jerky from the era. To the right, a large recreation of the orange packaging.

SRittles came from Skittles. The top of the k was originally extended to loop into a capital R. I kept that, and decided that with a purple package, SRittles was obviously a Saints Row-branded candy, so I also added a fleur-de-lis.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny texture for a "SRittles" wrapper to the left, a much larger "Skittles" texture in the centre, and that same texture edited to match the original SRittles package.

n&n's was, of course, originally an m&m's wrapper.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny little texture of an "n&n's" wrapper to the left. The centre has a large m&m's wrapper, and to the right is that same wrapper edited to read n&n's.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 11, 2026, 9:17 PM

MilkyMan came from MilkyWay. Looks like I didn't save the exact King Size MilkyWay wrapper I used (matching the original texture), so I've just included a different wrapper here for demonstration purposes.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a tiny texture of a MilkyMan wrapper; in the center, a sample MilkyWay chocolate bar wrapper; to the right, a large recreation of the MilkyMan wrapper.

PitPat was originally KitKat. I mostly try to find wrappers from the early 2000s, even if they don't match 100% with what appeared in Bloodlines. I didn't do that here, so I might not have been able to find one. So I recreated it myself.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny PitPat wrapper in purple and orange, next to a much larger recreation.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 7, 2026, 12:20 AM

Farefree was originally Carefree. I stitched together a few package components so I had something nicely high-resolution to work with.

The F is still a bit lighter than the rest of the title, but nothing too dramatic, so it's not a big priority.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny texture of "farefree" tooth-whitening sugar-free gum. In the middle is the source "Carefree" packaging. To the right, the Carefree packaging has been edited to match the farefree texture.

The Stork peppermint patties are based on York, of course.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a tiny texture for a "STork" wrapper. In the middle, a large full wrapper for a King-sized York peppermint patty. To the right, the York packaging has been altered to resemble the Stork wrapper.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 4, 2026, 11:49 PM

Hers His chocolate bars are based on the classic Hersheys, and you may have seen I've added the Hers His logo to a few other other Hersheys-derived bars already.

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny texture for a "Hers His" King Size bar, a larger Hershey's King Size bar, and then an upscaled recreation of the Hers His texture.

Bubble Bum was taken from "Bubble Yum." Three different kinds of Bubble Bum are shown in-game, but you can't really tell at that size because they were all colour-graded to look the same orangish-red. So I left these upscaled versions in the original Bubble Yum colours.

#BloodlinesRTX

A small "Bubble Bum" package of gum. Despite being grape flavour, it's reddish in colour. Next to it is a full size wrapper of grape Bubble Yum, and then an edited version of that grape wrapper reading Bubble Bum.

A small texture of "Bubble Bum" Ballistic Berry in reddish-orange, alongside a magenta upscaled recreation of the same package.

A small texture of "Bubble Bum" Cotton Candy in reddish-orange, alongside a blue upscaled recreation of the same package.

Big Lunk was originally a bar of Big Hunk.

#BloodlinesRTX

Upper left is a tiny texture of a Big Lunk bar, and lower left is the larger source image, a Big Hunk chocolate bar. To the right is a recreation of the Big Lunk bar at much higher resolution.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 2, 2026, 10:08 PM

Mr. Goo Goo had its origins as a Mr. Goodbar, of course.

#BloodlinesRTX

A small texture of a Mr. Goo Goo chocolate bar, a large version of the source wrapper, a yellow Mr. Goodbar, and that image edited to match the small Mr. Goo Goo texture.

Another one I think I eyeballed. The real-world chocolate bar, 100 Grand, becomes Bloodlines' 100 Rando.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a tiny texture of a 100 Rando chocolate bar. In the middle, the source wrapper: a 100 Grand chocolate bar. To the right, a high-resolution recreation of the 100 Rando wrapper.

@vonaether.bsky.social Oct 2, 2026, 3:53 AM

5th Venue was originally 5th Avenue, obviously. While I grabbed the source wrapper here for comparison, I don't think I had access to it at the time, so I just eyeballed it.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a tiny "5th Venue" chocolate bar. In the middle, the source image: a Hershey's 5th Avenue. To the right, a recreation of the 5th Venue wrapper in higher resolution.

Pounds, was, of course, originally Mounds. Not much to say here.

Hard to tell from the original texture, since it's only a pixel tall, but the top appears to be blue and the bottom red, so I made my recreation to match.

#BloodlinesRTX

To the left, a tiny texture of a chocolate bar that says "Pounds." In the center, the source texture, a wrapper that says "Mounds." To the right, a recreation of the original texture, edited to read Pounds.

@vonaether.bsky.social Sep 27, 2026, 6:18 PM

"Eat" was tricky. I had no idea what it was, so I just recreated it by hand. It's only afterwards that I realized it was an edited Heath bar. Oh well! Still looks good.

You can get a little silly with the small text that's never going to be visible in-game.

#BloodlinesRTX

A very small texture of a King-sized chocolate bar called "Eat". Below it is a Heath bar, and to the right is a recreation of the texture at much larger size.

@vonaether.bsky.social Sep 27, 2026, 6:18 PM

Fiix came from Twix, of course. Wrapper from the CWA. I tightened the kerning a bit on my version.

#BloodlinesRTX

A small purple wrapper texture for "Fiix". Next it is a larger brown Twix wrapper, and that same wrapper edited to read "Fiix".

@vonaether.bsky.social Sep 27, 2026, 6:18 PM

DayDay was an edited version of a PayDay bar. Endless thanks to the Candy Wrapper Archive (CWA), which yes, is a real thing. I couldn't have finished this project without them!

#BloodlinesRTX

A tiny texture of a "DayDay" chocolate bar. Next to it is a large version of a PayDay candy bar wrapper, and then that same wrapped edited to say DayDay.
