Just when you thought your teeth were the only place to display gold in your mouth, it turns out you can put it on your tongue, as well.
This company in Japan sells edible gold flake, and you can use it like this person is, or you can float it in your coffee, or whatever. It’s just your little way of saying to the world, “Hi, I have more damned money than I know what to do with.”
I’m guessing this fashion trend may be short-lived, once the thieves who make a living snatching gold chains start going for tongues, instead.
