Re: Darwin strikes again

The idea of mixing various chemicals.. specially as a chemist of sorts isn't exactly stupid.. but occasionally ingenuis.. however obviously playing with 2 substances the could potentially explode at the same time isn't..

Re: Darwin strikes again

It's a new gum..........

From the advertising department: "A flavor explosion in your mouth....."


From the developmental chemistry department: "Well, maybe to little flavor and too much explosion............. We'll keep trying."
