A Japanese dairy company on Thursday announced the launch of super-premium milk for stressed-out adults -- at the price of 5,000 yen a bottle (43 dollars) for a bottle of 900 millilitres, or one quart.

Tokyo-based Nakazawa Foods will launch the "Adult Milk" line of products in October targetting "adults who live in a stressful society," the company said in a statement.

The price is nearly 30 times as expensive as ordinary milk even in Tokyo, which is famous for its high prices.

The milk is taken from cows once a week at the break of dawn as they discharge a lot of a stress-relieving hormone called melatonin during the night, the company said.

The milk is bottled within six hours of milking at a farm north of Tokyo.

It is said to contain three to four times as much melatonin as usual milk.

I wonder if it works. That'd be really cool.

Or then again, it might be bad.

"Yo man, I need my milk fix."
"$200 dollars a bottle my brotha"
"That's robbery!"
"That's the price of doing buisness baby."
I will not abide ignorant intolerance just for the sake of getting along.

Just for comparison, Fit Care Depot sells skim milk at 99yen/liter and whole milk at 120yen/liter.:)
