<\/p>\n

I’ve never been down into the depths of the deep-sea, so I’m not too sure what’s down there.<\/p>\n

Although from watching Finding Nemo<\/em>, watching various Discovery Channel shows, and reading various issues of National Geographic (the boring issues without sagging topless women from African tribes), I think I might have an idea to what’s down there.<\/p>\n

Apparently, there are creepy-looking fish with spikes and frickin’ huge teeth, Davey Jones’ Locker<\/a>, pirate treasure, the Titanic, and lots and lots of whale and fish poop.<\/p>\n

But who would’ve known that the deep-sea would also contain vast amounts of healthy, pure, mineral-rich drinking water. Maybe if I visited, I would’ve known, but I probably wouldn’t have been able to tell anyone since my head would’ve exploded from the pressure of being at that depth.<\/p>\n

Recently, I was able to try the Koyo Ma Ha Lo Deep-Sea Water, which is pumped from 2,000 feet below the surface of the ocean and then desalinized, filtered, and bottled on the Kona Coast of the Big Island<\/a>.<\/p>\n

As you can see from the bottle, it’s printed in Japanese, because apparently desalinized deep-sea water is REALLY big in Japan.<\/p>\n

Although I’m not surprised by this because Japan is a country known for their eccentric products, like the boyfriend arm pillow and the girlfriend knee pillow (NSFW).<\/p>\n

According to Koyo, the deep-sea water contains ionized sodium, ionized chlorine, magnesium and calcium, which can help with everything from metabolism to circulation. This means the deep-sea water could help people lose weight and, for us guys, help give us boners.<\/p>\n

Now you would think that I would love this deep-sea water because the name Marvo means “sea lover” in some ancient language.<\/p>\n

Although, I don’t know whether “sea lover” means that I love the sea platonically, or if I enjoy getting it on with the sea.<\/p>\n

I REALLY hope that it doesn’t mean I enjoy getting it on with the sea, because thanks to my near drowning experience while bodyboarding at Hapuna Beach<\/a>, I now know that the sea likes it rough and kinky, and the sea apparently has some weird sexual asphyxiation fetish.<\/p>\n

Sorry, but that’s a little too kinky…even for me.<\/p>\n

Anyway, the Koyo Ma Ha Lo Deep-Sea Water has a very, very faint salty taste and it seemed more crisp compared with typical bottled water from mountain springs. However, I don’t know if I would be willing to spend four to six dollars for a 1.5 liter bottle of it, and I highly doubt I would be willing to fly to Japan to pick some up, since it’s only available there.<\/p>\n

Although, I am in need of a girlfriend knee pillow.<\/p>\n
