Diet Water
"All the flavor of regular water but only half the calories"

I want to know what kind of world we live in when people get duped into buying this. You'd think this is something we would find here in the US, but it's only in Japan - heaven forbid it find its way here - we would start seeing these instead of good ol' Zephyrhills!

Although some of the other products are a mite amusing...

Lowe Dubai developed the Axe Mmmousepad to endorse AxeFantasy. To use the mouse you must slip your hand underneath the skirt. They placed the mousepad across Internet cafes in the UAE to arouse the interests of young men there, and the plan goes so well that a huge fraction of these mouse pads were stolen.

Is it flavored water? If so then there can be a diet version of it. Look at the variety of flavored waters out there, some of them have calories (sugared ones) and some of them don't (artificial sweeteners).

It says "regular water" on the website itself!

Considering that bottled water is more expensive than gasoline.

Will this make the price of water go up... or down?

One of the funniest ads I ever saw was for dehydrated water; just add water to make!!

People think America is crazy, but Japan beats the world in crazy stuff!

Ever more diet products, and we are still packing on the pounds. Diet water - takes a place along side my pet rock.

One of the best things out there are light beers, no offense, but they are watered down, thats why they are less calories, less alcohol, but the same price? You have to drink more, pay more to get a buzz, when all you had to do was drink some high octane regular beer, more calories but it has more alcohol therefore you will probably drink less. One of those things I think alot of american's dont consider.
