It is a very famous gum brand, that is all over the world. This took a lot of research and I was mind blown when I found out that the trident gum was named after the trident Poseidon had. Another cool fact is that Trident was the first sugar-free gum, and that sugar free gum has 3 enzymes in it. These three enzymes fight off cavities, and it connects to the three sharp points on Poseidon’s trident! Poseidon's trident protected people and things, so this gum brand is trying to say that if you chew this gum you will be protected from cavities.]]> 2019-09-09 13:49:08 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381605743 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381606564 This is a weird one, but it's interesting. The Starbucks logo has a siren on it. In Greek mythology sirens were beautiful, irresistible female figures. Sailors would pass by on their boats/ships and the sirens would sing an irresistible song that would lurr in the sailors. Starbucks did not use this as their logo to trap customers, but to show them how irresistible their coffee is.]]> 2019-09-09 13:50:22 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381606564 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381606777 Protein powder is used to build up muscle and get into shape. The Greek god Proteus was a god who had powers to change shape. So protein powder (or any type of protein)  was first made to show how that if you have enough protein you can “change shape” or “get into shape” like you want to.]]> 2019-09-09 13:50:41 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381606777 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381607019 Nemesis Apparel is a clothing line. It is related to Greek Mythology because there was a god named Nemesis, and he was the god of punishing people who didn’t follow the rules. The reason why this company chose this name was because Nemesis punish people if they didn’t do what they wanted but for this brand, they are trying to state that these are the clothes that you want.]]> 2019-09-09 13:51:02 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381607019 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381607375 In Greek mythology, Zeus was mad at Prometheus because he stole his fire and gave it to the humans. As revenge, Zeus made the first woman Pandora and sent her to Earth with a jar full of diseases, and illnesses. Zeus told Pandora not to open the jar, and so Pandora used that name as their brand name to represent hope.]]> 2019-09-09 13:51:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381607375 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381735701 Achilles heel is a medical condition that people develop in the tendons on the back of their heel. It is where your tendon starts causing you pain and can sometimes even snap. In Greek Mythology Achilles the greek god was dipped in River Styx to be invulnerable. He was dipped being held by his angle and that made his ankle vulnerable and soon enough, his ankle was hurt by being shot with an arrow. I think this is a perfect name for this disease.]]> 2019-09-09 17:00:33 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381735701 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381735904 Saturn the Mythological god was the king of the universe and so Saturn, the car company named it that because they thought they would be the king of the car industry.]]> 2019-09-09 17:00:55 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381735904 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381736176 Atlas was a Titan that was punished by Zeus. He made Atlas hold the heavens to separate them from the Earth. The Atlas Van Lines Company wants you to think they are as strong as Atlas.

In Greek Mythology, King Gordius tied a wagon to a column with an unbelievably difficult knot. He said that anyone who could untie it, ruled the world. Alexander the Great cut the knot and went on to rule Asia. He was a bold king and since this was a bold and difficult knot, they named it after this event.]]> 2019-09-09 17:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381736291 jsniffen2025 https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381736925 Nike was a Mythological Goddess and the brand Nike took this name because it shows power. It shows power, it shows victory, and of course, that is Nike. Nike is now a very popular shoe brand and maybe some of that popularity has to do with its name.]]> 2019-09-09 17:02:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jsniffen2025/tokl0t61s0yl/wish/381736925
