Gandalph Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 Forget about all that expensive bottled water when you are feeling thirsty this summer, go and get a bottle of this instead. It will be much cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

catgate Posted June 24, 2008 Report Share Posted June 24, 2008 What's it all about? Surely it's not on sale some where?At the risk of starting World War 3 I am going to say that they do have some odd quirks about food and drink, and the names of things, in the Far East, but this one seems very far out, even for just a quaint name.

A friend of mine saw it in a magazine and thought it was funny. 'What some people will drink when they are desperate' he said to me.If I find out where it's from I'll let you know. :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted June 25, 2008 Report Share Posted June 25, 2008 Japan has long been a country with strange product names, at least for non-Japanese ears.Calpis (that sounds like cow-piss) and Pocari Sweat are established sports drinks that have been around for a very long time, but are rarely ever touched by foreigners (we wonder why ).I think PET SWEAT is now the pet version of the popular Pocari Sweat.
