Impulse Buy

I am a sucker for register candy. So yesterday I bought The new Ice Breakers "Pacs", its like the listerine strips that desolve in your mouth, but inside the desolvable thing is a packet of sugar, like pixi stixs.

Well I tried one , didnt think it was too bad, and then politely offered my officemate one. As I'm reading him the directions "place on tounge and let desolve. its really cool!" he starts screaming that its stuck on the roof of his mouth and this was the most terrible thing i've ever done to him.

He then asked for more.

We decided to call the hotline on the packaging for nutritional information and questions to ask what the thing that melts in your mouth is made out of...make sure its not carcinogenic or anything.

1-800-468-1714

When we pressed the button to get nutritional information a recorded lady who sounds like she had been a smoker for 40 years says "for nutritional information please visit our website www.hersheys.com"....SERIOUSLY? why couldnt they just print that on the candy instead of sending us on a wild goose chase!

My officemate still has a layer of orange goo stuck to the roof of his mouth.
