Intro for those who are new...

Welcome to my blog which shows you some of the interesting and crazy things I found in Japan. Sometimes they might seem offensive, other times tacky but mostly you will get a good laugh and an interesting story. If you have never been to Japan or if you live there, there is always something new to discover.

In this blog I don't mean to criticize or look down on another culture. I am simply expressing how I feel and what I see when I come across things. Also, though the title says 'Only in Japan' in no way am I saying that the following things are exclusively found in Japan (though that may be the case for certain things). It is more of a thought to myself whenever I see something I didn't expect.

Do you want this all over your dishes?


I know people are skeptical about advertising and the subliminal messages that are added into everyday media but you can't get any more phallic than this.
This is a dish detergent that I am sure went over well with the obasan housewives all across Japan. Or should I say came all over.
Maybe in other colors the bottle might seem a little more...subtle but in pink the first thing I think of when I see this bottle is DIL-
What do you think?
