[todesengel]

The expensive asian market has them for 3.00 for 5. There are Yakult-esque drinks for about $.20 a piece, though.

[junglejane]

yakult is so old school that it's retro and coming back into fashion. yakult is the new red bull.

i have seen these in mexico but never had one. what exactly is it, is it a yogurt drink or something?

[Chicken]

this whole time i had no idea yakult was so well-known.

by the way, yakult owns a professional baseball team in japan, and the team's called swallows.

yakult swallows...

[daikonyama]

I believe they label it as a "live lactobacillus culture" on the packaging heh.

Ha, man... I've never realized the irony of the Swallows until just... now...

yakult swallows...

i was about to post the same thing, i had no idea it was ever popular outside of japan.

i'm gonna have to disagree about you guys about the Yakult lady though, the one working where i lived was really annoying, she would always come at like 9 in the morning when i had drank all night the night before and ring like 3-4 times trying to sell me fucking yakult...

[herpsky]

12 to 20oz?

diabetes here i come...

[majikero]

here in the Philippines, yakult is priced for 8.00PHP. the exchenge rate of peso to dollar is 49.00PHP = 1USD. you do the math.

[Twibs]

this is what's up. I'd take a Yakult + Absolut over a Red Bull + Absolut anytime of the day, except I'd hope other people at the bar would be drinking them too so people wouldn't think I'm into Bukkake or something putrid.

Anyone had the pleasure of Berkeley's Koko House that was on Telegraph, and their ginormous pitchers of Yogurt soju? Shit brings back memories...

[sybaritical]

Haha

I'm in Thailand and England's right ... I pay about 6 baht for Yakult and I'm not gloating, but that sort of money probably wouldn't even register in most western currencies.

[superdupersang]

when i was in korea a couple of years back, i saw a program on tv where they collected all the empty yakult bottles and sent them to india to be recycled and they made artificail limbs out of them for land mine victims etc

i used to rink them like juice, 3 bottles a go and wonder why i get constant diarohea

stupid L.casei immunitas

but their new advertising campaign in the uk is pretty unique and good.

made by wieden and kennedy.

they actually did a couple of my fav ads. esp the honda ones

[apu]

in AUstralia they are about 5-6AUD for a sixpack
