Somewhere early on I was programmed with the idea of killing birds - not just one, but two! I'm sure as a young boy I threw stones at birds, but I've yet to kill even one. Though there was that time with the wrist-rocket, the marble, and the chicken on my neighbor's fence... still feel bad about that
one. Anyway - I'd like to see a "Beano-Mint" on the counter at restaurants. I think the "two birds with one stone" purpose(s) are self evident. Problem is, Beano is consumed prior to a meal, and the mint after, oftentimes with the intent of not only curing bad breath, but getting rid of remaining flavors. Solutions?
BTW - don't bother contacting Beano with this one - I did that, and they declined, stating that Beano could not be set out where children could eat it like candy.

Welcome to the Halfbakery, [RubyBlue]! |
|

As to the idea - it took some searching to discover
that Beano is not merely a popular children's comic,
but also a formulation to... anyway, what is it with
you people and your digestive tracts? |
|
| |
I was recently made aware (on this very forum) of a
type of American biscuit called "Happy Colon". Your
entire nation appears to revolve around its anus... |
|
| |
Hahaha! So true! My digestive tract suffers from the enjoyment of too many food choices from many cultures around the world - one of the MANY benefits of living in "My Nation". Curious - what gave away my "location"? |
|
| |
WP says that Beano didn't come into existence 'til 1990: odd, I've always thought of it as a classic remedy. |
|

Welcome to the Halfbakery, [RubyBlue], but anything even remotely concerned with the of killing birds attracts this bone from me. [-] //but I've yet to kill even one// implies that you are still trying. Don't. |
|
| |
^ perhaps, but they make quite a bit of noise when you try to eat them live. |
|
| |
Hey [MB], the company that makes Happy Colon cookies also produces "Powerflax Hi-Performance" cookies. |
|
| |
Hi [RubyBlue]. I gave you a bun to even out the score. It's a good halfbaked try at something! I don't use Beano, but I think you put some thought into this. |
|
| |
Also, let in be known that *we* (our nation) write the date backwards and drive on the wrong side of the road... |
|
| |
//Curious - what gave away my "location"?// The
idea. |
|
| |
And, [FT], what in gods' names do "Powerflax Hi-
Performance" cookies do? |
|
| |
Well... there's no mention of activities, sports, or increased energy on the box. |
|
| |
Breath freshener, some galactosidases... put in some
probiotics for the rumbly-tummy digestion problems,
and you'd have a triple. |

// Your entire nation appears to revolve around its anus... // |

This is exactly true. His name is Barack Obama. |

//This is exactly true. His name is Barack Obama.//
Hang on a second. I may not have kept up with
American politics, but I'm lining Barack Obama up
alongside Ronnie Reagan and George W. Bush and I'm
seeing a distinct improvement. Or is reason and
intelligence still viewed with suspicion in the
colonies? |
|
| |
//Barack Obama// Stephen Harper actually, though the object of your indigestion, Max, is actually Russian in origin. |
