EPT
Last week, I found a jellybean that was a number of different colours/flavours fused together, with a sort of fizzed outer shell. Naturally, I sent a letter to The Jelly Bean Factory. I'll be honest, it was a spur of the moment thing. It was an oddity, so I threw it into an envelope along with a handwritten letter that said something to the effect of:
To whom it concerns,
I have enclosed one (mutant) jellybean, which I was saddened to find in a bag I was eating. I send you this not in the hope that you will motivated to send me some conciliatory jellybeans, but in the hopes that you will know best how to destroy this mistake of creation.
With luck, I hope that it will be possible for you to find the source of the aberration and rectify it, if not for me then just so that no one else need face the horrors I have.
Love,

At this point, I was aware that I had worded things in such a way that a reply was unlikely, but I figured that it might at least provide enough entertainment for someone to feel as though they should reply.
Today, I received an envelope from them, containing a letter. The letter read:
Greetings from the Jellybean Factory and thank you for your letter in regards to your damaged jellybean, and apologies for the delay in responding.
Our quality team have inspected the bean and assured me that the bean was perfectly safe, just a little squashed. I am enclosing some beans for your enjoyment. Apologies if I got your name incorrect, as it was difficult to make out.
Kind Regards
The Jellybean Team

Gaze upon my bounty in wonder.
I can only be thankful that An Post (the Irish postal service) has done such a fine job that it managed to destroy the offending bean. Their skill in that area is unparalleled.
Is this the proudest I have ever been? Perhaps.
