When I was a young boy some 70 years ago, my friends and I would scuffle or wrestle. The winner was the one who could make his opponent cry, "uncle" by holding the opponent's head, arm, or leg in such a manner that as the opponent tried to struggle to escape, his predicament would only become more painful. Thus, the essence of giving up, or surrendering, by crying "uncle" would result in his immediate release. I suspect that these cinnamon Altoids are so curiously strong as they may induce the eater to cry, "uncle". They are very hot, you know! Perry Walton · August 3, 2013 25 people found this helpful. Do you? | Report As I’ve purchased hundreds of these and I have yet to hear one UNCLE or AUNT from any of them. I might suggest that you quit taking what ever you are taking and have your hearing checked. Kansanity · December 9, 2021 7 people found this helpful. Do you? | Report Maybe your uncle wasn't sure how to spell his actual name, so fell back on his relationship to you. Either way, isn't it about time you set him free? darkwise · November 22, 2024 Do you find this helpful? | Report HAAHA! T. K · August 5, 2013 One person found this helpful. Do you? | Report
