What is up with icebreaker mints?

If someone could explain that would be helpful, the mint package on the top says "to share" and "not to share" The" not to share" side is bigger than the "to share" side. I wonder, why did they do that? One would think that the "not to share" you only want one mint whearas the "to share" side you want to pull out more! Just wondering!

    I carry these mints in my purse all the time. I think they have the smaller side on the "two share" opening so that people cannot stick their dirty fingers in your mints and contaminate the whole package, and are operating under the assumption that you don't mind sticking your own dirty fingers in your mints. Also, the small "two share" side allows you to drop one mint into someone's palm and keeps people from getting more than one mint at a time, leaving more for you!

    the share side is smaller so you tip it and only like one mint falls out..and the not to share is bigger so you can get more

    They are probably saying that you'll want to keep more to yourself than eat. Or the marketing person is a selfish pig that doesnt like sharing :D
