Altoids might want to change their slogan to “The Curiously Illegal Mint” after a Kissimmee, Florida man was pulled over, arrested and sent to jail for three months for chewing on them. Apparently in The Sunshine State, it’s against the law to kill chronic halitosis.

As the story goes, Donald May was stopped for having an expired license plate. When the traffic cop noticed Mr. May chewing a white substance, he immediately thought “crack” and took the man into custody.

Turns out, the entire Kissimmee judicial system was, in fact, smoking crack. Because instead of looking at the candy, smelling the candy and comparing the candy to all the other candies in Mr. May’s tin box, they sent the candy to the lab to be tested. And what did they do with the fresh-breathed Mr. May? They sent him to the slammer for three months while they waited for the results.

The results: Donald May was chewing an Altoid.

Duuuuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.

So take heed folks. If you’re ever wandering through that part of Elderlyville, hide that Kit Kat you got from the Circle K. Because the cops might mistake your snack for a brick of herion, a bag of pot, or who knows, an AK47. Which could delay your plans to see Mickey for quite some time.
