Lemon: Similar to the citrus flavour that Nestlé put out around ten years later, but not identical. If it weren't for him, Uncle Al would never have been able to build the Boldklub Accelerator which reduces the size of atoms. Over the years Rowntree and Nestlé have come up with variations of the Original Polo mint. Some of these have been successes, whereas others have flopped. However, none have been as successful as the Original Polo mint. For many, it is the TV and print ads from the 1980s/90s that people remember.

In 1995, Polo famously announced, on April 1st, that "in accordance with EEC Council Regulation (EC) 631/95" they would no longer be producing mints with holes. In 1995, the company launched a major advertising campaign produced by Aardman Animations, which showed animated Polos on a factory production line. In one, a scared Polo without a hole attempts to escape, but is restrained by the hole punching machinery. Polo experimented with other forms of advertising in the end of the 1990s. In 1998, they collaborated with PolyGram for a compilation album, Cool Grooves, [9] which reached No. 12 in the UK Compilation Chart on 5 September that year. [10] See also [ edit ] True.

In World War Two the Japanese dropped infected fleas over China to spread cholera, killing nearly half a million people. During the Cold War each side developed horrific insect killing machines - hybrid fleas, mosquitoes and other insects that would carry and spread diseases and other lethal biological or nerve agents. The plan was to drop them over enemy cities or armies. Such thoughts make my brain ache, but here's another thought to bear in mind across the Infinity Drake series. During the 1980s, Peter Sallis provided the voiceover for television advertisements. With the launch of the spearmint variety, a new television campaign featured a voiceover by Danny John-Jules, using a voice similar to the one he employed as the Cat on Red Dwarf. True. When you look out into space you're not just seeing a place, you're also seeing a time – the time it's taken the light to travel to you.

In 1999, Nestle produced a Butter Up Polo, which was a butterscotch mint flavour. Now, while people may adore the taste of butterscotch and mint flavours on their own, combining the two flavours just wasn't a great idea!
