I noticed that in a listing of Japanese press releases (narinari.com) , that Pepsi Japan has announced they going to release Baobab tree favored Pepsi.

The problem is, what favor is a Baobab tree?

Ah, but flavor is never a concern for Pepsi Japan who in the past have sold Cucumber Cola (3yen.com 2007 June), fresh “Basil Pepsi,” and the dread red bean favored “Azuki Pepsi.” Pepsi Baobab’s release is scheduled for May 25 at a price 140 yen (about $1.30 USD) for a 500ml bottle and I be waiting to grab one off the shelves to report to you on what a Japanese Baobab tree drink tastes like.

Learn more from the Pespi Baobab(tm) press release at Pepsi Japan (machine translation).

Note: The baka images of Baobob Cola and Little Prince Pepsi fall within the providence of Fair use–Parody in their use for a possible baobab bottle and a Little Prince ad campaign.
