Y Water Helps to Keep Riff-Raff Out of Juice-Box Aisles

Posted by Aaron Burgess

If the idea of watered-down, vitamin-enriched Mott's or Capri Sun strikes you as gauche and you haven't yet resorted to a recession diet, your upwardly mobile toddler-drink prayers have been answered: Y Water, the Kanye West-endorsed low-calorie organic water drink in the Yves Béhar-designed bottle, comes in four themed concoctions -- "Brain," "Immune," "Muscle" and "Bone" -- none of which features actual brain, immune-system, muscle or bone fragments. Each, however, is loaded with vitamins, minerals and whatnot to support its accompanying body parts, and given that each plastic bottle costs about the same as a package of Capri Sun (without, you know, the stigma associated with poor people's drinks), we're certain they're far better for you than washing down a Flintstones chewable with tap water. Plus, the bottles double as landfill clutter interlockable building toys, so every Y Water drained becomes another block in the old construction set. [Via Gawker.]
