i know gum is not exactly food but it is very interesting! I will do a series on weird things from Japan!
This is a picture of the world record largest blown bubble gum! thats crazy i think..prolly take bout like 10 gums?
This is called No Time Gum. This multifunctional minty gum contains tiny granules that scrub your teeth clean while you chew! I can imagine Colgate and Darlie going out of business now! I LOVE THIS!
This is called "Man Smell" Gum. The Japanese name directly translate to this. It contains a special rose oil that will be let out through your skin after chewing. This one exudes a manly menthol rose aroma, not your average sweaty guy funkiness.
Ok this one is nothing special because i have seen this before too! It is basically just a box of gum with a stack of paper inside for easy disposal of the gum. No more digging your bag for tissue or used paper to spit the gum away. Good idea, I like!
This is called Black Black Gum. Yes it literally means that the gum is black in colour. People used to think that eating something black is weird, like squid ink or licorice but now it is cool! I remember trying licorice ice cream in Australia but i didn't enjoy it at all! Well, this gum has caffeine, niacin and a really powerful licorice mint taste, making it ideal for those late night study sessions.
I can hear alcohol lovers cheering for this! This is the Xylish Platinum Mint Chardonnay Flavored Gum. If you are driving home late at night and stopped by a traffic police, please do not pop one of these into your mouth! But its a good way to tell people you've been to the bar or those high class chi-chi party where they serve chardonnay!
This Fuwarinka Scented Gum works the same way as the men smell gum. The rose oil in the gum will ooze out from your skin, making not only your breath smell good but your body as well! Great for school children after their P.E. or athletes!
Suplitol Tongkat Ali Gum for Men contains natural herbs and extracts to improve blood flow and muscular function. No not in your arms, regardless of the ad. This gum also contains something called "plant testosterone". Have you ever seen a limp tree?
Last but not least, this is the Bust Up Gum. This will supposedly help you to enhance your bust! No need for any more breast implants, Bust up gum can do the same thing and its painless! According to B2UP, the special ingredient is extracted from the Kwao Krua plant and it helps to make a women's breast grow and at the same time improve the shape and tone!
That's all I have for you today! Be back for the next installment of weird japanese stuffs! Next post will be on Weird Japanese soft drinks!
