Belgium chocolate postage stamps


Still Waters

Recommended Posts

The Belgian post office, Bpost, has launched a set of special stamps that smell and taste of chocolate.

More than 500,000 stamps are being printed on special paper imbued with the aroma of cocoa and covered in a varnish to look and smell like chocolate.

The five limited edition stamps celebrate Belgium's renowned chocolatiers and feature chocolate in all its forms.

Chocolate stamps = no mail being sent. It's a ploy!

What if my dog eats them!

What's next, cheeseburger scented paper?

Uh, teacher, my dog ate my homework, really, he did!

Now there's some clever marketing to get people to use snail mail. Next step, perhaps the aroma of chocolate in fountain pen ink, scratch-scented writing paper, and the entire process of letter writing could be revitalized ... not to mention, the consumption of chocolate candies.
