I tell people that I’m allergic to mint. I used to tell people the simple truth, that I just don’t like mint, except that it turned out not to be so simple. “What? Wait, you mean like mint, like the wonderful, fresh leaf?”
“Yes.”
“Wait, Mint? How can you not like Mint?”
“I don’t know. I just don’t like it in food. It always tastes wrong to me.”
“Now, wait a minute, here. You’re saying that…”
Inevitably, they would work their way to toothpaste, and they’d have me there. Of course I like mint in toothpaste. I’m not a caveman. But toothpaste is not food. I’m not arguing with the flavor. It’s very refreshing. I wouldn’t have my gum/Altoids/menthols/toothpaste any other way. I just don’t want it mixed in with my chicken. Chicken shouldn’t ever refresh me.
