    Why does Michelin make tires but also is the main organization that gives out the most prestigious awards/ratings for restaurants?

    Why does Hitachi make reliable industrial vehicles and also sex toys?

    Why does Yamaha make motorcycles and jet skis but also pianos?

      Why does Michelin make tires but also is the main organization that gives out the most prestigious awards/ratings for restaurants?

      Because getting you to drive to a restaurant makes you wear out your tyres, thus increasing sales indirectly. “Don’t stay at your local town, drive 300km to this place we deem to be better!”

      Why does Hitachi make reliable industrial vehicles and also sex toys?

      Well reliable, durable machinery. Just explains itself.

      Why does Yamaha make motorcycles and jet skis but also pianos?

      No idea. Only commonality I see is sleek design and a bunch of wires.

      And as for dove, both soap and chocolate are mostly fat. Different fats, sure, but still.

      Why does Yamaha make motorcycles and jet skis but also pianos?

      And a bunch of other instruments too. I’ve played a Yamaha piano, electric keyboard, clarinet, trombone, AND French horn. They’re all just okay.
