Japan has an endearing love for poop. Recently, a Japanese scientist developed vanilla flavoring and scent from cow dung.
This love for poop also extends to the holidays and Halloween is no exception with some of the costumes below.
How else do you get a point across but to hammer someone's head with fake poo?
The translation for this item states, when normal finger pointing is not enough... 
Perhaps, the most realistic of the bunch, with flies attached is the poop hat!
This poop hat makes up for lack of realism with its' enormous size
And finally I suggest this costume as the poo's counterpart to clean up after all the mess:
Unfortunately, all these items (with the exception of the Toilet paper costume) are Sold out at Rakuten ( I was not exaggerating Japan's love of unko!)
But if you want any, email us and we will look for them!
Our Rinkya Stores department will look up any item for you!

Japanese Scientist Creates Vanilla From Poop!

Mayu Yamamoto received the 2007 Ig Nobel Prize at Harvard University for her work with cow dung.
Yamamoto found a way to extract vanilla odor and flavoring from cow poop!
I wonder if this will be bottled in the future?
The Ig Nobel Prize was developed by the Annals of Improbable Research humor magazine. The awards are for genuine achievements- but ones that often have a humorous, outrageous and/or unexpected result.

Deer Unchi (Poop) Candy!
.
I have previously discussed the fascination with unchi Japan appears to have in an earlier post here
During my trip to Japan, I noted these candies (choco drops) for sale at the Nara Park.
Nara park has hundreds of deer roaming around that can be petted and fed (no diseases to worry about in Japan)
Beware when feeding, I was bit multiple times and gave up, throwing the food away from me to get the deer off me!
Also beware of deer poop which can be found all over the park!
And as a way to always remember your experience at Nara park, feel free to buy the deer poop candies sold all over.
I did not purchase but took multiple pictures :)
Unchi is believed to bring unko (luck) to you!
Add some Unko to your life and get some Unchi sent direct to you Here.
