Why don't they just hand out deodorant too.

My birthday twin Sarah totally wins with the Worst Ward Mother's Day Present of All-Time!  Here's her comment.

We had a cheesecake/chatting party the entire 3rd hour delivered on trays by our bishopric in our Murrieta ward. It was the BEST! This year as we walked out of the chapel after Sac mtg we were handed a tin of ALTOIDS by a teenage boy. Seriously? breath mints? 
Look, I'm not saying that a ward has to do anything for the women on Mother's Day or that it has to be spectacular. It's kind of a nice but silly tradition that can sometimes take away from the spirit of the meeting.  But if they do, at the very least they should not give a gift that says, "Your breath stinks."

Yep, that wins for worst. I thought ours was lame (a tiny pot of honey, maybe a tablespoon of it, that cost 3 bucks), but at least it wasn't insulting. I just want a Symphony Bar and a root beer like they give the dads. But breath mints. Horrible.
