For the Hello Kitty fans and health buffs out there, this gadget is perfect for you. It's Sanrio's Hello Kitty Body Fat Meter.

Now, if you're wondering what the cute kitty is doing on a weighing scale, we haven't the slightest idea either. Though it may be a good idea to listen to somebody who weighs just that of three shiny apples (according to Wikipedia). Anyway, the weighing scale has four variants: Body Fat Meter (BF-071-KT), digital display (D-041-KT), analog display (HA-011-KT), and a cooking scale (KA-011-KT).

The body fat meter retails at around JPY 6,000 (or US$ 49), the digital scale at JPY 4,000 (or US$ 33), while the cooking scale and the analog scale can be yours at JPY 2,000 (or US$ 17). Hmm... We've definitely seen weirder things from Sanrio.
