Ah,well.

I believe that Ishmael was the product of a pack of Beechnut.

It’s a little known fact that back in the early 1930’s, the peaceable Germans were enjoying the abundant leisure time of the depression,singing, dancing, and spending weekends in the Beer halls listening to various political spokesmen expound on the virtues of their Party.

There was this moderate socialist, name escapes me, with a new party, that was boring people to death with his dull speeches,lessee now,…….. oh yeah, Hilter, Arnold Hilter, or something like that.

Anyway, these Jewish conspirators, an evil consortium of bankers and confectioners, decided to test their new product on some of the more boring politicians, a chewing gum consisting of maltitol, glycerin,gum arabic,soy lecithin,carnauba wax, and the usual flavour enhancers.

The active ingredients the Jews were anxious to test were cocaine and methamphetamine, in rather large doses, 50 mg per stick. The theory was that, though possibly addictive,the benefits would far outweigh the risks. If they could get more production out of their wage slaves with a bit of chewing gum, they’d make a fortune.

So, one evening in the Spring of 1931 they went to one of many beer halls in Munich, and passed around the Pack of “Juicy Wienerschnitzel” Gum, with added “Zest”(TM). This guy, Hilter said, just before he went on, “I’m feeling a bit tired tonight, give me the whole pack”, which he promptly stuffed in his mouth and chewed vigourously.

That night he was spellbinding, and the audience cheered wildly. The media said,” we have a new Messiah”.

And the rest is history.

You’d think those guys would learn, wouldn’t you.

A fabulous memory from my youth. I mean, it worked for us.
