Hopefully you found it by sight first and not by smell, because that can get truly awful.

Sounds like fun. Why is it even on Excel though? And what are you supposed to do with it?

It's boring. It's on Excel because for some bizarre reason, the shoddy software is still universal business standard.

Actually hold up, we’ve always had Extra

In 775 AD, Charlemagne fights more Saxon Wars and Baghdad becomes the largest city in the world, taking the lead from Chang'an, capital of China. Wait, wasn’t Baghdad just founded in a recent history lesson? I guess it wasn’t founded on an empty plot of land.

That pack design you've posted looks like Extra to me. Are they both Wrigley's in Canada?

Wikipedia wrote: Eclipse is a brand of chewing gum and breath mint, first introduced in the U.S. by the Wrigley Company in 1999 as its first entrant into the pellet gum segment. However, it was modeled after Excel in Canada, which was launched in 1991, eight years before Eclipse was launched.

I was expecting at least a couple months summer slump. Last year we had 3-4 months of slump. This year we had maybe a couple weeks.
