From the frigid, majestic North (Canada), hails a creature like no other. Is it a bear that took up viking-ing? Or a viking that turned into a bear?

Hi-Chew Premium – Double Melon
What man doesn’t like melons? They can vehemently deny it all they want, deep down they know they love melons. It’s just a subconscious thing. They just can’t help it. And I mean, would you…
