People say when you put mentos in soda or whatever, it explodes? Well, today I observed that. I placed a green apple mento on top of my glass full of Dr. Pepper. And I waited and waited. And guess what? Nothing happened. BUT, the Dr. Pepper started fizzing. But nothing happened but that.
So I tried a LEMON flavored mento this time. The same Dr. Pepper. As I placed it on top, the mento flew about 2 and a half inches from the glass of Dr. Pepper! I jumped and fell onto the ground. I didn't expect THAT.
So I guess that the flavor of the mento actually matters. Haha. You learn something everyday. And I learned something fun :]


P.S. QUESTIONS:

Q: Did you eat the mento?
A: Yup! It tasted all like a lemon and Dr. Pepper mento. Maybe because it was?

Q: Was there a mess?
A: Now that you mention, I really need to clean the kitchen. Haha

Q: Will you do it again?
A: OF COURSE!

Q: How do you feel?
A: Like a evil scientist >:]


NO MENTOS WERE HARMED DURING THIS EXPERIMENT

Well..maybe some (:
