Those 11 people? 5 Spice Girls and 6 guys named Herb.
11 Herbs & Spices. I need time to process this.
Yup. It’s true. Scary, Sporty, Baby, Ginger & Posh make up the spices and a news producer, L.A.’s City Council President, an MMA fighter, a trumpeter, Santa Clara University’s head coach & a Green Bay Packer fill out the rest.
No word from the company on how the special Herbs were selected, but they have reached out to to most of the guys in regards to their new found viral-stardom.
