Someone invented a coffee for dogs, and people are really unsettled about its name

For some reason, a woman in Lithuania invented a coffee to be consumed by dogs. If that’s not alarming enough, the brand’s name is “Rooffee� - which sounds uncomfortably similar to the shortened term for infamous date-rape drug rohypnol, also known as “roofie.�

Unfortunately, this is not a joke. According to Rooffee creator and former model Agota Jakutyte, the branding is simply a sad accident.

“Maybe because I do not watch TV, or read our local papers, I haven’t heard about roofie before,� she told Vice in an email. “I simply combined ROOTS + COFFEE... That’s how the name ROOFFEE was born.�

Twitter is not here for this.

“I’m gonna go ahead and vote this as ‘Worst Product Name of the Year,’� @TotallyGeeky wrote.

It is made with herbs and vegetables, including dandelion root, hawthorn, chicory, burdock, and carrots. The product’s press release claims that this recipe will provide better digestive and immune systems, a stronger heart, and healthier skin. It can even be consumed by humans.
