A display of Oreo cookie variations is seen at The Museum of Failure in Los Angeles on December 7, 2017. The Museum of Failure at the A+D Architecture and Design Museum is open through February 4, 2018. The words "Colgate Lasagna" don't sound particularly tasty, so perhaps it's no surprise that the dental care brand's 1980s-era frozen food line is now on the menu at Museum of Failure. The museum was initially unveiled in Sweden in June, before opening in California this month. On display are more than 100 items, including a special section dedicated to US President Donald Trump's ventures -- which museum director and curator Samuel West says is a "shrine" to the president. / AFP PHOTO / Robyn Beck / TO GO WITH AFP STORY by Javier TOVAR, "Colgate Lasagne, Crystal Pepsi and a Trump board game: all museum-worthy failures" (Photo credit should read ROBYN BECK/AFP via Getty Images)
