KraftWERS

KraftWERS is a fictional company that appears in the animated television series Futurama. The company is a parody of Kraft Foods, a real-world food conglomerate. In the show, KraftWERS is known for producing a wide variety of processed foods, including cheese, crackers, and frozen dinners. The company's products are often depicted as being highly artificial and unappetizing, and the company itself is portrayed as being greedy and unethical.

KraftWERS has been featured in several Futurama episodes. In "Fry and the Slurm Factory," Fry and his friends travel to the factory of Slurm, a popular beverage produced by KraftWERS. They discover that Slurm is made from the excretions of a giant space worm. In "The Problem with Popplers," the Planet Express crew encounters a species of aliens called Popplers, which are revealed to be the young of the Omicronians. The Popplers are then marketed as a delicacy by KraftWERS, leading to a conflict with the Omicronians.

The company's name is a portmanteau of "Kraft" and "werk," the German word for "work." This is a reference to the German electronic music group Kraftwerk, which is known for its innovative use of technology and its often robotic sound. The name also suggests the company's focus on mass production and industrial processes.

KraftWERS serves as a recurring antagonist in Futurama, representing the darker side of corporate greed and the dangers of mass-produced, unhealthy food. The company's products are often used for comedic effect, highlighting the absurdity of consumer culture and the artificiality of modern life.
