I don't have an answer to the "what the...?" aspect, but I know I drink a bottle of that nearly everyday after I go running. I think I've been sucked in by the little spiel at the bottom ("Pocari Sweat is a healthy beverage...") but it's probably not true anyways.
It's funny. I remember reading Masamune Shirow's Appleseed as a teen, and in one panel Briareous is sipping something from a can - it's Pocari Sweat. But I swear the label on the can read "popcorn sweat" in the panel, and I was like, "What's popcorn sweat"? Interesting little revelation.
