as a take on the 'raw' or 'sweet' water market,
at the past weekend’s Car Free Day Festival in
Vancouver, British Columbia, visitors were given the chance to buy Hot Dog Water, the health food creation is the brainchild of Douglas Evans, an
artist, who called it “a commentary on product marketing, and especially sort
of health-quackery product marketing”, well the blurb is pretty impressive, it
is gluten-free, keto-compatible, and is rich in electrolytes, hot dog water
comes with a series of supposed health benefits: it’s rich in sodium, which
helps your body increase its water intake, helps the drinker lose weight,
increase brain function, it makes drinkers of it look younger and increases vitality, and triggers
anti-inflammatory processes, making it the perfect post-workout drink, and the clincher,
every bottle contains an actual hot-dog!
to make unfiltered hot dog water seem like an actual product, Douglas Evans spent real money creating it (about $1,200), and it turned out so believable that people at the Car Free Day Festival in Vancouver, where the artist had his own booth, actually brought about 60 liters of it, at wait for it, $38 per 500ml bottle! to save you the math that is $4,560, so I guess I have answered my own question, yes some people really are that stupid!
