What wine goes with Suicide Food?

Suicide_wine_2

Originally I meant to post about Suicide Food (via Neatorama), but that site got me thinking about a cheap cooking wine my mom used to buy when I was a kid. The label fascinated yet nauseated me; it was a lovely little illustration of a parade of animals, each cheerfully carrying a platter of its own meat to indicate this wine was yummy with just about anything. So I started looking for that image. An hour and a half later I still haven't found it, but I've discovered some amazing sources of wine label art instead. Here are some of the best:

The first time I got drunk was off a bottle of cooking wine. I was sick for a week. Thanks for bringing back a wonderful memory.

Yeah, but what did the label look like?

Suicide Food? At first I thought you meant food you would eat before committing suicide. Requests and whatnot. And then I thought of last meal requests before prison executions. Depressing. Being a seventh-level vegan trustafarian who only eats lawn-clippings that died of natural causes -- no mowing! -- I worry non-stop about animals, but rarely think about dirty death row cons. I'm pushing my envelope with this list of FAMOUS LAST MEALS:
