Treasure Trove

When you live in North America, you get used to medicinal products having technical or hyped-up names.

In Hong Kong, many such products come from mainland China or Taiwan, where manufacturers often opt for more poetic-sounding names. When I was at the pharmacy, I noticed that instead of overblown titles such as Super Lycopene or Prostamax, one male supplement was marketed as Prostate Treasure.

Some of the definitions of treasure are:

· any thing greatly valued or highly prized;

· to retain carefully or keep in store;

· to put away for security or future use.

The jokes just write themselves.
