Cosplay FanimeCon: sale of 'Fresh Feet Juice' at U.S. anime convention

Last weekend, the annual anime convention FanimeCon took place in San Jose, California, where two cosplayers introduced a rather unusual product called 'Fresh Feet Juice'. The event, which has been held since 1994, draws around 30,000 visitors each year.

What is 'Fresh Feet Juice'?

The cosplayers, who marked their presence at the convention with large signs, gave attendees a few different options to explore. For $5, visitors could take a swig of the mysterious red liquid. For the more adventurous, there was the option to lick the juice directly from the cosplayers' feet, which cost between $10 and $15.

Public reaction

Reactions to the unusual sales pitch were mixed. While at least one customer was interested and actually placed an order, there were also passersby who wanted nothing to do with the offer. It seems the cosplayers found a unique way to combine creativity and business sense in the world of cosplay.
