We know Belgium is famous for their chocolate,and their postal service capitalized on that fame at Easter earlier this year. The Belgian post office released 538,000 stamps with pictures of chocolate on the front,essence of cacao oil in the glue on the back for taste and in the ink for smell. A collector stated the taste was disappointing but they smelled good.
Since the postal service started in Bhutan (around 1962) they have issued unique stamps,from 3D to the more modern CD stamps that play their national anthem,folk songs and a short history of the country.
Meanwhile in the U.S. our postal service flounders and all we get is less than exciting pictures.
