If you go to any aquarium in Japan, head to the gift-shop and you will almost certainly find an adorable plushie of Giant Isopod. They may come across as a deep sea creepy crawly normally, but Japan seems to have a fascination with them in merchandising. That doesn't end with kawaii-ified stuffed animals, however. Thanks to Ocean Teabag, you can now have a nice hot cup of tea made from a Giant Isopod teabag.

As you can see, the tea bags are quite large and shaped as a Giant Isopod, which has apparently confused the ocean with your tea cup. The tea itself is a Taiwanese tea called "Oriental Beauty", and is made from leaves chewed on by the white-backed planthopper, which is said to contribute to the flavor. So double the creepy crawly fun in your tea.
