Some of you may know CalorieMate as somewhat of a gag treat in the popular video game series Metal Gear Solid. It's an actual snack in Japan, and looked at as sort of a meal supplement or energy bar. As such, CalorieMate finds a lot of customers in prospective university students who need something to power through in order to get through the rigorous university entry process in Japan. In this new commercial, CalorieMate is offering an inspiring message to their customer base as they prepare to embark on that journey.
