San Pellegrino makes an italian soda called  "Chinotto".  Now in Canada, the ingredients have to be listed in French as well.  Imagine my surprise to find amongst the ingredients "extrait de chinois" listed.  Yup that translates to extract of a Chinese Person.

Ummph.

I LOVE the translations on stuff - some of it is SOOOOO bad.

I? want nothing to do with that drink. That is all I have to say ; )

BTW what does "Artiste De Martiaux Lequel Etre Sournoi" mean?

I'm stuck on Sournoi - I don't know that one....
