Visit chris jordan photography. You'll find an answer to this question, but you will also find many more questions unanswered, as the artist grapples with the issues of consumption in modern society. This from his own statement:
The pervasiveness of our consumerism holds a seductive kind of mob mentality. Collectively we are committing a vast and unsustainable act of taking, but we each are anonymous and no one is in charge or accountable for the consequences. I fear that in this process we are doing irreparable harm to our planet and to our individual spirits.

Thanks, I knew that picture was familiar, but I didn't know where I had seen it -- the bookstore. I was unfamiliar with most of the other images by this photographer. Amazing stuff.
