Gee, I guess I haven’t had Mentos in a while. I got a pack and was eating them on the plane. Since the lights were low, I wasn’t paying attention and dropped one into my lap. Unfortunately, I had to turn my light on to find the darn thing. When I did, I looked at it TWICE wondering if that was indeed my Mentos. On a plane, who knows what you can find.
Sure enough, it was my Mentos, but it had a funny smiley face on it. I found that weird, so I took ALL the Mentos out of the package to assess the situation. Turns out they ALL had some sort of a smiley face or “emoticon” on them. Next, I looked at the outside of the packaging… aha, some “Say Hello” campaign going on.
So, while I didn’t share a Mentos sweet treat in person with someone, I am sharing this message with you, so you see what they look like. They are cute and funny.
It’s “almost” like sharing the real treat, right?!
I would’ve missed this too, no different than if I was eating M&M’s. Haven’t had a “Mentos” in a long time. I think you just corrected me but I used to think a single candy from the pack was called a “Mento”. Not anymore.

You are right, I always called them a “Mento” too. It appears though that under Mentos “Fun Facts” they say its Mentos for plural and singular, because a Mentos is NOT a Mentos without the “s.” :). I learned something too.
