Kirin Mini Beer

In another great April Fool's joke, Kirin introduces the 1 ml Kirin Mini. This plays on jokes about the 135 ml beer cans which are considered laughingly small. Many online comments point to people actually wanting to buy 1 ml cans for key chains, etc.

Glico Curry Flavored Pudding

In a country where food companies will try just about everything, it is not always easy to spot an April Fools joke. This is a pretty good one. Glico announces a curry flavored pudding, but clarifies it is not real in small print. Hats off to the marketing team at Glico.
