Man...first Santa Claus and now this. The dude on the labels isn't real? I always thought Burt Bee was a real dude. Like he was this magnanimous individual living up in the great white north whose heart opened to everyone's chapped lips and then spent a movie montage in his out building developing the most loving and effective lip balm and then showered it on his fellow canuckleheads and they all sang folk tunes and drank ale around the blowlog in the center of town.

Now I find out its some rich heiress sitting on her thrown like the ice queen denying the desperate paddlers without rain access to the sweet frothing rapids of some pristine virgin forest river?

Man....the next thing this board will do is tell me Chaney was a war profiteer and the easter bunny got eaten by Wiley Coyote. The holidays are now FUBAR.

It's even worse than you think. Cheney had connections with Acme, Inc. He secretly supported expansion of the W. Coyote operation, while he cashed in on the sale of such items as rocket-powered-pogo sticks, portable holes, and giant permanent magnets. In the end, it was the bunny that paid the greatest price...

I read it on the Internet, so it's true.

You are all wrong!

Burt's Bees is only the trademark

The product is actually made in China and shipped to New England where it is re packaged for USA sale.

Actually, this is a joke, but you would be surprised at how many products are labeled as made in USA but they are only re packaged.

We live in interesting times.

Since Al Gore invented the intertubes, everything on it must be credible.
