7-Eleven remodels... Simpsons-style!

As a promotional effort around the upcoming "The Simpsons Movie," 7-Eleven Inc. is planning to refit 11 stores across the U.S. to resemble the front of the Kwik-E-Mart, the convenience store run by Apu Nahasapeemapetilon.

Customers will be able to buy products inspired by the nearly two-decades-old show, including KrustyO's cereal, Buzz Cola and iced Squishees (the cup says Squishee, but the contents will be Slurpee), according to the newspaper. The chain also will use pictures of Simpsons characters to promote 7-Eleven's line of fresh foods, such as placing the face of Homer and his classic "Mmmm . . . sandwich" quip on sandwich wrappers.

It was unclear which 11 of 7-Eleven's more than 4,700 locations nationwide would receive a cartoony facelift or sell the inventory of Simpsons-inspired products.
