Japanese ‘needing’ erasers good enough to eat
Without a doubt, Japan has some of the world’s best products…. sometimes in the strangest ways.

For example, the most perfect pencil eraser on the planet is from the Sakura company, the Deluxe Foam Eraser W. It’s the perfect eraser in every way— fits as easily in your hand as it does in your pencil case, erases with ease (no need to press hard), doesn’t become dirty fast, and eases cleanly (the leavings are easy to clean up). You’ll be amazed.

Mo’ amazing is Japan’s “kneading erasers” in desert and food flavors such as this CURRY-Scented Neri-Keshi / Kneading Eraser!
For all you Eraserheads out there, here’s a treat that you wish you could eat, but can’t, so don’t. This delicious-smelling eraser comes in a parody style package and looks, and smells (but does not taste!) like real curry. Maybe even more fun once you take it out of the box, so you can imagine that it’s just a simple eraser and then — WOW! — the whiff of curry is upon you. For those of you who sometimes find yourself sniffing even normal erasers, this is your dream eraser. A kneading eraser that can be smooshed and mooshed into different shapes and sizes. Do. Not. Eat. It.

In the same theme, there’s even a cola eraser….the Neri-Keshi / Kneading Eraser — Cola Scent . For all those times when a boring rubber eraser just won’t do.
Buy it now from J-List!

The bad/baka-BuddhaBoy in me just forces me to giggle. At my desk, on a busy morning I have started absent-minded nibbling on the Cola eraser pictured. The cola eraser smells 100% real and no different than an open can of generic cola. :-)
