What does Jerry mean when Jerry and Elaine are sitting in the car with the mannequin between them and he says: "I don't know about you, but I'm getting a hankering for some doublemint gum."?

What's funny about that line?

There was a commercial here in the US, or maybe there *still* is, for Doublemint gum where they use twins, usually females. Hope this helps. Oh Stephan, can you tell me what Curb Your Enthusiasm is titled in Sweden? My friend hasn't heard of it and I think he might like it. Thanks.

Doublemint

can you

heard of it

Thanks for your answer. No wonder I didn't get it, but now I do.

"Curb Your Enthusiasm" is called "Simma Lugnt, Larry!" here in Sweden. It's on every Wednesday night and Friday night at 7:30 on channel SVT2.
