My First Experience With Fisherman’s Friend (in a Fishermans Friend Tin)

I remember the first time I ever tasted a Fisherman’s Friend: 11^th grade Chemistry class.

It was offered to me by a friend who gave me the mint with the admonition to be careful because it was strong!

I didn’t take her warning to heart and popped the mint into my mouth as I waited for class to begin.

WOW! It was strong! I ended up having to suck the mint in installments.

It took me almost a whole hour—or the entire class period—to get through the mint! 🙂

At that age, I didn’t think anything of it. I had little use for Fisherman’s Friend.

I couldn’t quite understand why anyone would choose to submit themselves to such torture.

As an adult, though, Fishermans Friend has become a staple of my daily life.
