    Still WTF, but at least the label matches the picture…

    Edit: the lower left probably says something about black pepper and salt (ブラックペッパー&ソルト) – I can’t tell what the rest of the characters are though through the JPG compression. Probably (\ included) for the parenthesis bit?

      Thanks, I should’ve looked up “electric massage” on urban dictionary after the translation.

        Like the Japanese version of the North American “Gas Pedal”?

      Why did you replace the 「と」with “&”

      It would be better if you left the original text in the quote unaltered

        I didn’t. I wrote & because it looks like the text actually says & as far as I can tell – not と.

          Well it does say 「と」 on the packaging

          I assumed you replaced it because as a particle it can be used as a particle to say “and” in Japanese

          For example

          あさみ と みほ.
          (Real Japanese won’t have spaces in it, I just added them for this example to indicate the names and the particle)

          Means “Asami and Miho”
