Leave it to Japan to come up with a USB powered cigarette that doesn’t actually contain tobacco. Supposedly it produces some sort of smoke, but most likely the aromatherapeutic kind that any Mesothelioma lawyer worth his salt would despise. The product page is completely useless as well:

How is the Ministry of aerosol charging is complete in itself and very easy to set the cartridge.The only draw suction from the mouth, the pump mechanism of the weak solution mist through the mouth and draw air sensors automatically. Nicotine, tar will not be detrimental to health that are not recommended to go to when I quit smoking.

Oh yeah, thanks for clearing that up for me! Sheesh. I think I’ll pass on your new-age electronic smoking device, thank-you-very-much.

I’m sure this isn’t exactly new- I’m pretty sure I’ve bought products that were packed in something like this crazy gel/foam that expands and conforms to the shape of the product/box/anything. It’s still cool to see it in action, even if I don’t understand a word they say in this video. They could be advising the audience about the best diet pill for all I know.

Alright, so I don’t actually have the item in my possession, but I’m sure that a few mouseclicks from this post would lead to an actual product page, though it might be in Japanese.

What this product does, besides make you look silly, is it keeps your hair out of your noodles. Why they only market this at noodle eaters is beyond me- maybe they have a grudge.

I’d like to throw in the highly cliched ‘only in japan’ statement, but I’ll spare you by beating around the bush and saying that while they eat tons of pasta, this obviously didn’t come out of Italy.
