Sometimes I am a stickler for science, and sometimes I am not. This happened on one of my stickler-for-science days.
In complete privacy, I asked M.M. for something radical. I asked for a chocolate. I was granted permission into the heavily guarded, barbed wired area of the cabinet. (Okay…I’m exaggerating a little.) There I found a large chocolate sculpture of something that was supposed to resemble some sort of bird. On top of the package, there was a statement:
Chill with your north pole pals!
One minor problem for a stickler-for-science, though. Next to that line, there were 3 pictures. There was a polar bear, walrus, and (surprisingly) a penguin.
Where is the problem? I’ll tell you. Penguins live the farthest away from the North Pole that is possible. They live by the South Pole.
I chose my chocolate, and turned my back to the disgrace of knowledge of the average American chocolate eater.
great post!! i think that you should call the chocolate company and tell them of their marketing mistake! I'm sure that they will be pleased to know of their error and maybe you'll even get some free chocolate!!!
