December 8th, 2007 Posted by: Dr. Dobson
Hershey’s Ice Breakers Pacs — dissolvable pouches filled with mint-flavored powder — are being criticized by some law-enforcement officials who say the packaging resembles pouches of illicit cocaine and heroin, the Associated Press reported Nov. 30.
“Being in narcotics the majority of my career, I thought it was the real stuff,” said Philadelphia Police Chief Inspector William Blackburn of the nickel-sized mints.
A Hershey’s spokesperson said that each packet contains the Ice Breakers logo and that the product “is not intended to simulate anything. The official also would not discuss whether the company planned to change the packaging.
