I thought my Mexican Coca-Colas in the returnable glass bottles recently all had a new premium/prize offer on the bottle caps which read "2 Sellos". I figured collecting enough of these things might qualify me for a toy, or better yet, maybe winning a new car.

After a couple of months now, I went on-line to see what the gimmick would be. Much to my disappointment, it turns out to be a new mandated government warning applied to what is classified as unhealthy food choices. The higher the number of "sellos", the more "poison-laden" the food commodity. I guess cokes aren't exactly deadly with just a "2" rating. Live and learn.

Maybe it's like golf. The lower the number the high the poison content. Hope not. Hate to lose you.
 
Melt a crayon into your bottle cap, you'll be a Skelzie champion... like I was .
 
3 in Spanish is 2 in English?
