Okay, I love peppermint Altoids. I buy six packs at Sam’s Club. I also love ginger, so I was very happy to hear that ginger Altoids were being made.

Unfortunately, I couldn’t find them. Until the other weekend Andrea and I found ourselves a) hungry and b) in Durham. We were looking for some place to eat and came across Foster’s Market.

As we were leaving, I noticed an Altoid’s display and ‘lo, they had ginger (they also had licorice, which I wasn’t aware of). So finally, after almost a year of waiting, I got to try ginger Altoids.

They were too strong. I hadda spit mine out. Oh well, at least I liked Foster’s.
