DUBBBLE BUBBLE numismatic error

This morning my daughter opened her Dubble Bubble gum and the "Dubble Bubble Fun Fact" stated that the first US Penny was made in 1727 with the words "Mind Your Own Business" on it. Do you think asking for a new pieceof gum with a corrected "FUN Fact"is out of line?

    I once saw on a Snapple cap that incorrectly said the first U.S. Cents had the slogan "Mind Your Own Business"

    Hahah! I saw that one as well. Translated it is actually closer to "Time flies, so mind your buisness"
