Has anyone had this drink before? Its like a japanese version of gatorade.
Here in the philippines, They only sell the korean version of it on selected Supermarket and on any Japanese-Korean Grocery.

I've had the korean version of it lots of time. Me and my friends don't like the taste and I saw on TV it was just like sugar water and stuff.

I tasted the Korean one and didn't like it at all the first time, thought maybe it's an acquired taste and tried it twice more. I still don't like it. I just keep imagining that I'm drinking sweat lol and it's not appealing hehe.

I bought a bunch of that stuff from Taiwan...at first I didn't like it, but my mom bought too much so she kept making me drink it lol. The taste grew on me, and now I love it!! The taste is pretty unique.

Pocari Sweat helped me survive when I was dying in the 40 degrees+ weather in Japan during summer. O___O
Really good when you're dehydrated

its not that bad taste-wise but while you're drinking, you start to think of the name..pocari SWEAT..so yea, it seems like you are drinking sweat and then it tastes horribly nasty.

I like Pocari Sweat because it is not as sweet as Gatorade and does not have outrageous artifical coloring/flavoring.

That stuff tastes gross. When I was in Korea and I got really sick, that's all my aunt made me drink... maybe that's why I hate it so much >.>
