Why we always eat 2 Smintjes and never 1

Or twenty, because I just dug up a large pack at the local grocery store and May and I particularly enjoy that. ‘150 Smints’ is written on the package in the middle of our desks and each Smint gives you about two hours of fresh breath. I've definitely eaten ten in the last hour. No joke. Googles: effects of excessive Smint use.

May told me yesterday that she read in a book that it's impossible to eat just one cashew nut. I'm sure you're trying to take just one now. I would definitely do that. Now, I'm not really a cashew nut person by nature, so that probably helps, but I do want to know why I can't stick to just one Smint.

When I quit smoking I inhaled my Smint very hard, yes, this sounds a bit like sniffing glue, but it did help with the cravings. Not my whole Smint, just the fumes. I'm not making it any better, am I? I'm also glad I quit. Now you might think it's about sugar, but science hasn't proven that it's addictive, says Kennislink. What can work is finding something tasty. Because when you like something, you want more. Farmer's logic, I love that.

So simple. We are now at the point where the entire editorial team knows that the large pack of Smints is in the top drawer of my desk. I'll take another one. Or two. Or three. Or four.
