Mnemonic

You can eat all you want, but you'll still lack something to drink. You can't live just from eating, you have to drink things too!

Imagine eating and eating and lacking a delicious, cold, thirst-quenching drink. Your mouth is dry. You have to drink something, anything!

Mnemonic

You get desperate for a drink and put some nori (の) seaweed in a blender, trying to create a drink of your own.

Luckily, this nori isn't dried and pressed like they usually are, and you manage to make a bright green nori drink. You gulp it down, and even though it tastes like the ocean, it hits the spot!
