The structure, which consists of a variety of canned juice and vegetables, snack foods and other non-perishable food items, took about six hours to construct.
The annual CANstruction event brings together teams of engineers, designers, architects and students who compete to design and build intricate structures from non-perishable food items. The completed structures were on display at Conestoga Mall in Waterloo from March 9 - 16.
The People's Choice award is determined by public vote as individuals cast ballots for their favourite structure with a donation to the Food Bank. Based on support raised for their entry, the Conestoga team was presented with the 2014 People's Choice award on Sunday, March 16.
When the competition is completed, all food items used in the sculptures are donated to the Food Bank of Waterloo Region. The organization hopes to collect 24,000 pounds of food through CANstruction - or enough to handle its needs for one week.
