AGM#2

By on October 5th, 2010

Fun Fact #77042 – Mailmen taste minty.  However, the age of the Mailman impacts the strength of that mintiness, with younger ones being a mild spearmint through to the retirement age ones, who are subsequently melted down and used by the Altoid company.

NOTE: Legally I’ve been told I have to say that Altoids do NOT contain a concentrated reduction of old mailmen.  Whether you believe that denial or not… well, I have no control over that.

    …well, good to know -that- mystery has been cleared up…but what about other delivery people? Like the UPS man?

    UPS is Tootie-Fruity. Fed-Ex is Vegetable Cornucopia. DHL curiously has that Sun Chip, crunchy cardboard flavor… but the aftertaste burp is ALL tuna.

    Or so I’ve heard.

    Looks like I am changing to Mentos.
    I don’t like the taste of UPDS or UPS personal.

    They use ‘Fed-Ex’ people 😉

    I wonder if post officers have regional flavors as well? Like a post officer near Philly has a cheese steak flavor?

    Aaah, just gotta love that new mailman smell. And taste. Good stuff, that.

    Also, Alisdair as a travelling salesman is awesome.

    @keylaleigh: I like that idea. The MA ones would taste like chocolate chip cookies, since they were invented here!

    And does Alisdair’s Suk-O-Matic 666 still have the neutering option still available/ Y’know just in case I get any new pets, or Pain comes to visit.
