References
- The end of the consumption text refers to the "Weight Gain 4000" episode of South Park, in which Cartman is constantly yelling "Beefcake!"
- This ancient dietary supplement is possibly a reference to the trend of using supplements (steroids, human growth hormone, protein powders, etc.) to gain an advantage in body-building and injury-recovery.
- The item description might also be a reference to Asterix, a popular French comic series. One storyline takes place in Egypt, where a druid brews a potion that gives the Egyptian workers superhuman strength, allowing them to build a pyramid faster, and with their bare hands.
