kinoki foot pads

ding dang, i've been scooped by one of my favorite sites. a few weeks ago heather and i were watching some afternoon tv on the weekend, or weekday, or sometime we were watching tv. anyway, we saw an ad that cracked me up and i knew i needed to post on it. then i sort of never got around to it.

here's the commercial from youtube


today, i saw a post on boing boing about them. they scooped me. that's alright. someone else scooped them (well, i don't know that the really scooped them since boing boing is a catalog of stuff).

you see, toxins don't really come out through our feet. they're filtered out by our liver and kidneys. which pretty much filter everything. and, even better, the kinoki foot pads cite a fake study according to wikianswers.

"Looking at kinoki.com it only cites testimonials, one of which references an article in the Journal of Immunity, which despite its name is not a real medical journal and is little more than a compilation of testimonials."
