@dbl-dog-dare-ya: Actually, I bought this Irish Spring body wash, not realizing it has menthol (or something) in it. In addition to the gross minty smell, it has this weird \"cooling\" sensation. Suffice it to say, it feels particularly unpleasant on certain parts of the body.

I really loathe mint and menthol. Now it's starting to creep into everything. Toothpaste, mouthwash, and gum wasn't good enough, apparently. Now we have Kool-Aid, body wash, and apparently mints for your cooch now? Jeez.

@amberlink: oh man, now you made me think about that fact that guys who never leave mom's basement would be furtively ordering them from the internet in plain brown wrappers so they can satisfy their curiousity.
disturbingly, i see a market in this. i mean, they already make bacon mints

@someToast: i had seen that before, but thanks for the nightmarish reminder. actually i was thinking of the TASTE sensation part of it rather than the aroma. for guys who want to know what they are missing.

@catastrophegirl: I had a friend once tell me that roasted tarantula tastes like vagina. I can't confirm, however.

@ArcanaJ: I think the tarantula came after the vagina.

@subtlefrog: Unable to confirm because you've never tasted a tarantula, i imagine?

If you look at the website carefully, the manufacturers of this product were very careful to say \"This is a NOVELTY product only\" and they never tell you to actually put it inside your vag. So that's how they're trying to defend themself legally. Hah.

I'm willing to be that all those \"testimonials\" are made up by the creators

@helloashley: almost all sex toys claim to be \"novelty only\". I guess \"novelty\" is a pretty loose term..

@helloashley: yeah, but colored, flavored, etc condoms also say 'for use as a novelty product' and say not to rely on them for prevention of STDs and pregnancy.
doesn't mean people pay any attention to that

\"for novelty use only\" = Not tested by the FDA or any other regulatory commission, does not treat or cure any condition, if it gives you a horrible disease you can't sue us because we warned you that it was all a joke and we didn't really thnk you'd put it on a mucus membrane just because we told you to.

Oooh- I seriously want a tin of these

toss a few in the \"grandma candy\" dish

or keep some in my purse for when my husband says, Do you have any mints on you? and hand him one and then let him know he's enjoying what is supposed to be a vaginal suppository of a candy.

These could be a lot of fun in unexpected ways.

The whole issue would be avoided if said mints were just sweetened with splenda. Then you'd only have to worry about cervical cancer. Win-win, right???

Is anyone else trying to picture the board meeting where this was pitched? Or handing this idea off to advertisers? Because I can't imagine that no one along the line sat back reflected on internal mucous membranes and stingy mints. I can almost picture it if it's a roomful of men around a keg, but that isn't exactly professional behavior and probably isn't encouraged in most work places and even then they have to sober up sometime. Because my mental image of guy staggering over to his boss and slurring: \"Brah, I have an idea for the mints and it'll be totally awesome!\" can't really happen in real life. Right?

Why I think that this is a bad joke:

Mother Jones? Seriously?

Now maybe I'm just working off a bad stereotype here but I thought MJ was all liberal and feminist and screw him if he doesn't like your unshaved legs. I just can't figure how -- unless Mother Jones has turned into some Cosmo mag wannabee while I wasn't looking -- that any marketer would look first to them to give a (non-derisive) shout-out for their product.

Oh, and a yeast infection? Generally not catastrophic. Intensely uncomfortable and just bleeeech, but not generally landing one in the ICU. (Do not however take this as advocacy for the happyfunmint.)
