More weird and wonderful Japanese products
As I am growing my pet project, Meiji Amino Collagen, I have been keeping an eye out for lucrative Japanese items. Through my foraging, I’ve come across a couple of hilarious, and disturbing, things for sale in this land of high tech products and massive consumerism.
I couldn’t believe it when I saw the words F Cup Cookie. Apparently, the active ingredient to increase your bust line is pueraria mirifica. The reason why I even know how to spell this herb without referring to Google is that I’ve written about a certain brand of bust cream back in the day when I was a magazine journalist. There are some bits of my portfolio that never see the light of day and this advertorial is one of them. Let’s just say, I had no idea this could be consumed orally and what if these delicious biscuits go to your butt and not your bust?
Another bewildering product is curry bath powder by Bandai. These bath salts will turn water brown and has curry-like spices like ginger and red pepper. Ew. I would feel more dirty after such a bath, rather than squeaky clean and relaxed. Even worse, what if some dumb gaijin picks this up thinking it is really curry powder?!
I kind of get the bust enhancer cookies because Asian women are constantly trying to make their boobs bigger, but the curry bath powder? Go figure…
