This is disgusting (but worksafe).

Altoids CrackSours now come in a very tasty Apple flavor.

I wouldn't pay $535 for someone to send me a collection of condiments. I'd probably pay $5 or $10 for someone NOT to send me a collection of condiments. Ugh.

When I first read "in a very tasty Apple flavor," my first thought was, "What, you mean, like, Blueberry, Grape and Tangerine?"

I can no longer abuse Altoids Sours. I am immune to their charms. And all it took was six months of chemotherapy!

Holy shit!

I scrolled down the condiment guy's auction expecting to see maybe one bid for $1. $535? Clearly I am in the WRONG line of business.

And a cheap, transparent bid (so to speak) for pity. Ugh.

I wonder how long it is before people take note and start trying to build a better life [Larson] by auctioning off stolen office supplies.

When i looked, it was at $71. $535? No way that bid is kept.

Actually, that was Adams, not Larson.

Apple?

Oh, no!

Get thee behind me!

Am I the only one who eats Altoid Sours until the surface of his (my) tongue is all raw and painful? This is bad! Bad! I make hatey face!

I wish it were only my tongue... it's often my palate, too. Crack is bad, mmkay.

Sadly, I can't recommend the Ginger flavor. A tin languishes in the center console of my car. File under "seemed like a good idea at the time."

This begs a question: as far as addictiveness, is it:

Altoids Sours > Mentos (fruit flavored)
or
Mentos > Altoids Sours

For me it's the latter, although I think I'm in the minority here.

I've never tried the fruit Mentos. The consistency of the mint Mentos doesn't appeal to me.
