Mmmm… Tentacle… Grape
Japan has one export more notorious than all others. It’s about time we gave something back.
The lowdown from Kotaku:
Tentacle Grape is a caffeinated grape soda that Mnemosyne is targeting at gamers, cosplayers, and comic book fans. It is also perhaps the best name I’ve ever seen for a product you actually ingest. You can currently pre-order the soda (pre-ordering soda?) in six-packs for $15.99 plus shipping from the drink’s website, with each order before January 5th eligible for free Tentacle Grape bumper stickers or condoms…
Guzzle some, and get back to us on its… taste, probers.
