Love it! Any Japanese grocery store carries it. I buy it by the bag at Jusco.

Kane-hide has them I know that. Aren't they for helping digestion? My wife says they kill bacteria or something like that.

Jusco in Chatan have them my kids always drink them, you can buy them in bags almost any store.

Yes, it does help digestion, kills the bacteria in intestines.

It seems that everyone else replying here might want to take a moment to see that the OP is posting from somewhere other than Japan. So to tell them "where" they can purchase the product here seems to me to be a bit, well uneccessary.

And just to let people know, any convience store or supermarket will have the product. If you are buying them in bags odds are you are purchasing a "look alike" product and not Yakult but something similar.

Yakult has numerous products Yakult UK


Yakult Wikipedia

Yakult Japan (In English)

Have you noticed the ABC and check mark above the smilies when you make a reply?

That is a spell checker as well.

Yes I do notice them captain obvious thank you. Like I said before in other threads, I WAS AT WORK!!! I don't have time to 'go advanced' with my posts since I was at work and use spell check.

Thats why I like firefox, it's already checks your spelling right after you write the word!
