I love when a product has a name that really has nothing to do with the product or maybe has someting to dowith the product but suggests something other than the products purpose...

A few of my favorites:

"Crazy, Exciting on STEROIDS!!!!" no, it is not an add for a Ronnie Coleman guest apearance..it is a 500g cake of fireworks.

"BIG RACK" which of course has a picture of a scantily clad busty woman on the side...again, 500g cake fireworks because fireworks are like, so, ummm hot. "WOW, Ted, Nice rack on that 500g cake, have you seen the a** on that roman candle?"

And the flavor of Syntrax Whey protein I picked up yesterday....Apple Ecstasy. What exactly do they think I am going to do with this protein powder? Ohhhh, apple ecstasy...it is so *gasp* good.

LOL! I live in Korea so the English here is quite...funky.
Here you can eat "Happy Brocolli, "Honest Spagetti, Virus Crackers, Pharmacy Toast, Special Testes" (which is candy by the way) or you can buy bread at the local "Poison Bakery". I smile everytime I see a new product or read the discriptions. Good times!
