Icebreakers Iced Tea Lemon Mints


Icebreakers Iced Tea Lemon Mints really taste like iced tea. No joke. Upon trying these, Brett suggested that someday all our food would be in pill form. I agree with him: if food scientists keep dreaming up artificial flavors like iced tea, food pills may be a possibility.
Try these!

m&m's strikes again!


I was happy to see that m&m's has decided to continue their series of flavored candies. They are doing so with great style! Adding artificial flavorings to m&m's seems like a natural extension of the candy.
The mint flavor is delicious. "These are really good," exclaimed starlette Ms. Morgan Rose Stewart, as she chewed delicately chewed the green orb with delight.
The candies come in a package displaying a picture of Harrison Ford, advertising the most recent Indiana Jones movie. Even the m&m's themselves are adorned with little Indiana Jones emblems. The candies themselves are a bit larger than normal m&m's and come in three shades: green, light green, and white. They have a slight crunch, because the filling of the m&m is not pure chocolate, but rather partially chocolate with a crispy filling. The filling lends itself well to the flavoring, giving the whole candy a lightness rather than the heaviness which m&m's usually possess.
Overall, the Mars corporation strikes and wins again with another great candy creation! These exist for a limited time only, so really you should go out and try them now. I found them in the checkout aisle at Walgreens.
