launched in the 1980's? I'm sure it had a Chinese name... I think there might also have been umbers in the name, does anyone remember it?

I think the full name was Pocari Sweat. It's Japanese. I remember my brother and I bought a can of it (we were kids) and thought it tasted yuk. And we had this idea that it was actually made from sweat.

It's still around! It's pretty big in the middle east and asia. Ads for it everywhere. It's basically just premade citrus-flavour Dioralyte solution!
