A strange new twist on a classic Japanese snack, which involves the underarm sweat of the women who prepare it, is being proudly promoted in some high-end establishments.
Always be very skeptical about "Japan weird" stories that don't cite a specific store or person or place. I'm not saying that this particular story isn't real, but this kind of shit gets made up all the time for clicks.

in this case i wouldn't rule out it was originally made up because somebody was horny and then later turned their fantasy into an article.
One of the things I've noticed about reporting on Japan is how eager journalists are to attribute one-off or rare occurrences to the entire country.
Its like if someone wrote an article about "Britain's gamer girl bathwater" and trying to make it sound like the whole country is in on it.
