Origins of Yummy Goods

Posted by jarringMange - July 6th, 2023


This is actually dumb as hell, and I just want to put something down to get the other blog post off my "Latest News Post," stand.


Basically on tumblr I had a porn alt blog called "Tasty Clean," yeah you can think about it as someone drinking cleaning fluid to clean themselves out. Kinda edgy but it was more tasteful since the idea wasn't you dying, just more feeling refreshed because.... Well I don't know, porn? Anyways it was a lot of fat women which has nothing to do with anything, but it was the alternate to my actual art account which, at the time, didn't have porn.


When I started drawing traditionally back in 2017 it was mostly a way to keep sane, and draw really plump pin ups. Yeah 6 years ago isn't a long time for most adult creators, but I was also 22 when I started. Late bloomer, what have you, but it was a way to keep sane. Back to "Tasty Clean," you can probably already figure the flaccid punchline here being the connection between Tasty Clean and Yummy Goods, the idea that a cleaning fluid isn't yummy or good, but it is a good as a product...


So as I started drawing safe things I needed a place to put them so people could see my progress and bang, Facebook- so I can get terrible comments from people I didn't give a shit about that I only added because we were in college and had the same job together. Discouragement aside, I still did this shit for me and I was insanely happy with my fast progress. I was posting on Tumblr with my safe art, and people enjoyed it at a whopping 5 notes a post. But- As soon as the porn ban happened on tumblr, I scraped all the names I had from there and redistributed them to what I was currently doing. Even though I wasn't drawing porn, I always looked at it because who the fuck doesn't?


Yummy Goods already had a logo thanks to me loving to create logos and the notion to start a subscription service under that followed. The first instance of me using Yummy Goods as a brand for myself was more for illustrations, and a test of what NFC (The things Amiibos have in them) business cards were like. But Yummy Goods as you know it today was an expansion, no pun intended, of my porn/pinup art being encapsulated under one banner.


Every single site I had had a different name, JarringMange, LatulaLover, hell I even just used aspexParsec once or twice. So I needed a banner because I was never going to get "YummyGoods" as a name on most platforms. Like not even this platform!! It's being parked right now by someone who isn't even fucking using it! Exaggerated aggression aside, Yummy Goods, my thing that already had a logo, was the perfect tie. Patreon had the username available, Subscribe Star years later did too--


And now here I am. After an amazingly designed logo, if I do say so myself, I'm Yummy Goods. From bleach drinking joke to artistic umbrella... I'd say I'm embarrassed about the origins being a bit edgy but this is Newgrounds, I think you don't need a mirror to understand how ironic that'd be. Well, I also told you this was going to be stupid and it was. A lot of rambling with pointless history thrown in just to hear myself talk. It's fun though, this is what blogging is all about.


Cat-cha later.
