A Brief Comment on the Halls Lozenge Company

I've been feeling a little bit messed up lately because of all the stress of living - at least that's what my doctor tells me. My doctor also tells me that I will feel significantly less messed up if I cut sugar out of my diet for a bit. Being the authority obeying drone that I am I have tried my darnedest to follow doctors orders. And then I got sick. Really sick. Like small unruly opossum living in my esophagus sick. Thank goodness our society is image conscious enough to provide me with a lozenge that is sugar free. Created by the Halls Lozenge Company - OXYGEN! The sugar-free lozenge. There was only one "Flavour" of this available to me - Ocean Blue.

Be incredulous if you will of the flavoring title, Ocean Blue is in fact an accurate nomer for this little item. I believe that the only way I can describe the flavour is through the awesome power of simile.

I don't know if you've ever swam (swum? swimmed?) in the ocean but the experience of sucking on an Ocean Blue Oxygen lozenge is akin to swimming at low tide when a freak wave takes you down. While below, you swallow about half a liter of low tide, rotten kelp infused water. The flavour also includes subtle notes of sewage and dollar Store "herbal" shampoo. Yum.

Long story short, I now pity Diabetics when they get colds.

I think the new commercial of the kid moving into his dorm room and his mother has some kind of encounter over a Hall's is really in poor taste. What does it say about the kid's mother. Didn't really think it was sexually oriented until the boy and his father come back and "catch them". Really..... your product sells itself, you don't have to stoop to such stupid measures!!!
