Yeah… you read it right.  The answer to every alcoholic's midnight craving:  Beer Curry.

I'm not a beer drinker, but I am an avowed curry connoisseur.  Despite my better judgment, for some reason I kinda want to try this.  Anyone?

Mmmm... tastes like Shiso!

"Pepsi Shiso features a clear, refreshing flavor and a clean aftertaste. Tinged with Green Shiso (Perilla frutescens), it both imparts a pleasant cooling sensation and has a vivid green color.

On the package, there is a background reminiscent of white hemp material with a transparent Shiso leaf shape that creates a novel, 'refreshing summer' design."

Shiso is commonly in Japan for seasoning pickles. So… yeah. At any rate, it went on sale 6/23 and will have "limited seasonal availability." Thank God for small favors.

My virgin experience with "F-cup cookie" was on the famous Takeshita-doori in Harajuku this past summer.  Apparently, they're made with soy milk, so if you're lactose intolerant…

So delicious you can't stop
Growth that won't quit

The top will expand
The underside will tighten up

Bon Appé-tit?
