Confessions of a compulsive Bikkle buyer

Bikkle

Bikkle, in retro-looking glass bottles. The Japanese (Katakana) text under the logo reads 'Bifidus'

I have no idea why Bikkle seems to have become my favorite drink these days. Bikkle is a yogurt-like drink sold (apparently) only in vending machines in Japan; there seems to also be a version sold in a conventional PET bottle in the convenience stores, but while I can't explain why, I am sure that the glass-bottle vending-machine version tastes much better.

Having discovered that there's a 100-yen vending machine nearby that sells it, it's been a constant rate of two bottles a day. It also seems that I'm not the only Gaijin who is a big fan of this drink: I could list a few people, but maybe I'll simply hope that Google leads other Bikkle lovers to this page.

Couldn't be written any greater. Reading this post reminds me of my old room mate! He often kept talking about this. I will forward this post to him. Fairly certain he will have a good read. Thanks for sharing!
