Japan’s First Edible Face Masks Will Curb COVID-19 And Your Hunger

Japan’s long been known to stretch the boundaries of creativity when it comes to everyday products, which is why edible melon bread face masks are another mind-blowing concept to bolster that claim.

Goku No Kimochi, a company that manages a number of Japanese massage parlours, has a division under it called Goku No Kimochi THE LABO, that’s collaborated with Melon De Melon, a bakery that specializes in serving up melon bread. Though the concept sounds lowkey gimmicky at best and sketchy at worst, the masks have undergone official testing by a third-party called Untika Garmentec Research. Results from this testing proved to be positive and effective in offering protection against the spread of COVID-19.

Make no mistake these melon bread face masks are in fact edible, so if you’re looking to end your day with a snack after using it, you’ll be met with quite a tasty situation.

If you’re looking to curve your hunger and COVID-19, the masks are selling for $16.44 and can be bought here.
