A travesty.

I am on the last Icebreaker. There are no more.





My Shell station that I stock up on them with has officially changed over to the Icebreaker cubes.




Nobody likes those.




Nobody.



I had an in-depth conversation with 3 of the employees of that particular service station. None of them could explain to me why they haven't re-stocked the Icebreakers box, but they re-stock all the other useless gums. I have been buying my Icebreakers there regularly since I discovered that they are the only place I know of that sells them. I have also noticed that I am the only one buying them. I bought 4 at once last time I bought there. Then last week, I bought their last one. They said they don't have any in stock, they even checked "the back", where apparently there were no Icebreakers residing, either. They said to check back on Wednesday, when they re-stock. That was today. They have Icebreaker Cubes now in place of the regular Icebreakers. They cannot tell me what has happened to the normal Icebreakers. They don't seem to care, either.







Well I do.











I care a lot.











I need my Icebreakers. Trident won't do the trick.











I went to 4 gas stations today to find them. It's a huge conspiracy. Nobody knows where the REAL Icebreakers have gone. Nobody seems to care. Nobody but me.













I took some Icebreakers to Ireland this summer. The kids thought they were "Deadly, and brilliant." Icebreakers rule all the breath-fresheners in the world. The little Irish kid I gave it to told his friends in excited exclamation, "Look! Blake gave me some American chew! It's lovely!"








America, we should care. We should know where our Icebreakers are. And we are running them off, because we have fallen for the lies and deception and false advertising of horrid products like "Stride" and such. Stride....that gum flavour lasts like a half hour at most. It's not even very good! Even Trident outlasts that by like 5 hours. Icebreakers are filled with little bubbles of mint flavour that burst upon every chew for almost the first 5 minutes. Icebreakers flavour never leaves. It still feels fresh after weeks of chewing the same piece.









Probably not, but it makes my point. If the Stride advertisers can lie, so can I.










Someone...find me some Icebreakers, or I might break down.











It may be too late.
