I used to be brought to Andes Mints at a completely young age.  although, my strongest reminiscence become not of consuming them, it turned into of being attacked by them.

My own family commonly went to a bit Mexican restaurant on the town, and whilst we finished eating we might get those mints with the test.  My  older brothers would make a form of blow dart from the wrapper, and choose their target.

So right here’s to a friendlier version of Andes Mints that we will all revel in.
