Are You Tired? Have a tasty glass of eel

It's the hottest season of the year in Japan, and that means it's eel season. So, bottom's up! A canned drink called "Unagi Nobori," or "Surging Eel," made by Japan Tobacco Inc., hit the nation's stores this month just ahead of Japan's annual eel-eating season.

"It's mainly for men who are exhausted by the summer's heat," Hayashi said of the beverage, believed to be the first mass-produced eel drink in Japan. Many Japanese believe eating eel boosts stamina in hot weather. The fizzy, yellow-colored drink contains extracts from the head and bones of eel and five vitamins - A, B1, B2, D and E - contained in the fish.
The Japanese particularly like to eat eel on traditional eel days, which fall on July 24 and Aug. 5 this year.

"Placenta 400000" - perhaps it's made from the ground & pressed extract of 400,000 placentas? The revolting beverage should come pre-packaged with mints because there's nothing worse than placenta-breath in the morning.
