I totally thought that video was going in a whole different direction for a few seconds...

Definitely the tamest thing I've ever seen involving Japanese women and tentacles.

That's pretty much identical to the ad where the garlic, onion and other foods follow the guy around and up the stairs until he has the gum.

But Asmor is right, it does introduce a whole different vibe what with the tentacles. You just have to recall that squid is a common food in Japan.
