Sweet mother of ........... I am saving my cash for a box of those. Need more details! Just saw the picture of Viaje Harvest Blend on there too. I am drooling all over myself.

Considering the atrocities committed by the Japanese during WWII, I won't be shedding a tear for them any time soon. I'm pretty sure they aren't holding any memorial services every year on 7 December.

Why is it bad using the names of something that helped us win the war? Would it also be bad using the name of M16 or grenades, in their history they have killed a lot of people as well. He has just been on a roll with nuclear names lately. It is not like he named them hiroshima and nagasaki. I would also go as far as to say that if Japan would not have had that tragedy lately then we would not even be having this conversation. This is just my opinion and I am not trying to make anyone upset.

That is really not a great attitude, and you need to look within to find the real source of your anger and deal with it. This type of logical conclusion to a human tragedy is not going to make our world any better or move us forward as a species.

There is a line that, when crossed, ventures into inappropriate, tastless, and utterly despicable. If you're going use the names of 2 bombs that killed innocent civilians in the most heinous way to sell your product then in my opinion you deserve a swift kick to the genitals because you've clearly crossed the line.

I wouldn't be appalled at the use of m16 or grenade, because those items are not directly linked to any single event. They are common weapons, and they most likely have been used in noble causes at some point or another. I do acknowledge that "fat man" and "little boy" helped us win the war and save hundreds of thousands of American lives, but in the process we unleashed hell upon civilians... elderly, women, children, and disabled. That kind of carnage should be depicted in history books for posterity's sake, not used to sensationalize for the purposes of profit.

Call me cynical, but I highly doubt that 9 people out of 10 even know that "Fat Man" and "Little Boy" were the names of the atomic bombs in the first place...

I agree and I don't feel he is trying to cash in on others pain. He is just using a nuclear reference. I plan to try and score some if my local shop can get some.

Your 100% right Brooks.
This is nothing more than a marketing ploy which as of late as proved immensely successful for Viaje. If people are offended then don't buy them.
