Pink Pepsi Launches In Japan

Posted 10/05/2011 7:30 am by

Pepsi Pink, for when you want a glass of strawberry milk without the health benefits.

See that horrible pink liquid in what looks like a normal Pepsi bottle?  Well, hold your nose for this story, because that’s a Pepsi that tastes like carbonated breakfast.  For once, turning something pink isn’t a breast cancer awareness thing; Pepsi Japan’s Pepsi Pink is actually a carbonated strawberry milk flavored take on Pepsi.  Seriously, strawberry milk Pepsi.

I know it sounds terrible, but let’s be honest, this is Japan.  They love terrible food there; if Suntory–Pepsi’s Japanese distributor–thinks it will sell, it will probably sell.  After all, this is the country where they put fried eggs on their McDonald’s hamburgers, want to put pizza on the moon, and invented everyone’s favorite, the pancake-flavored milkshake.

After all, this is Japan’s winter party season, and that means it’s time for Pepsi to roll out a new seasonal variant.  Pepsi Pink is only the latest in a series of weird Pepsi flavors rolled out for the holiday season, including Pepsi Caribbean Gold, Pepsi Baobab, and Pepsi Ice Cucumber.  All this talk of weird drinks makes me want to Pepsi Vomit.

The streets of Dhaka are running red with blood.  We’re not talking little trickles of blood, either; we’re talking full-on blood flood filling the city, turning the capital of Bangladesh into a post-apocalyptic wasteland.  There have been lots of horrible flooding events, like a flood of toxic sludge and street-clogging floods of frogs, but a […]

Netflix’s Virtual Video Store

There’s nothing quite like walking into a video store, looking at the rows of boxes, and selecting a movie to watch.  It was one of my favorite things as a kid, and one of the few reasons why I went to Blockbusters right down to the end of their run.  Even after Blockbuster folded, I […]

Giant Tire Fire Erupts In Spain

One of the most famous features of Matt Groening’s fictional town of Springfield is a strange one.  Springfield is home to a giant, perpetually burning tire fire.  I guess considering the town also has a nuclear plant that routinely leaks glowing green waste into the town’s water supply, the tire fire isn’t such a big […]

Gas prices don’t usually go down.  They go up.  Gas prices rose for decades, sometimes slowly, sometimes quickly, but always up on a long enough timeline.  Not long ago, $4 a gallon for gas was a very real proposition.  Nobody thought prices would go in the other direction, and yet… gas prices are going down […]

Posted 12/03/2015 11:20 pm by

Fashion designers look for inspiration everywhere.  Some of it is pop culture, like Friday the 13th-inspired hoodies.  Other fashions are inspired by low culture, like deluxe Snuggies.  Some people turn to the culture of their past for inspiration, like the 8-bit video games they grew up on.  Italian fashion house Moschino is partnering with Nintendo […]
