I have solved my problem with this enemy. I switched to Prestige, they are thicker and a little harder to handle but I can almost guarantee the kids will get out of the restaurant without popping it. I only order assorted bags about every third order and then just to get enough to make swords and ray guns with, I put faces on all my creations and ordering straight colors allows me to do this, true, they may cost a little more but it is worth it. I still order goldenrod in qualitex because I use a lot of them in some of my creations. Living in North Carolina I probably twist more rams than anything else, (Tarheel fans) and I find it is the hardest animal I make because if I have just a slight fingernail it will cut the balloon and this gets annoying. Keep on twisting, if you try Prestige and like them let me know, maybe they will pay me a royalty for plugging them. BTW, I wouldn't buy Prestige if you are still blowing up balloons by mouth, You just might run out of energy. Also If you order any balloons from T. Myers remember he always tells you to test them as soon as you get them and if they are not up to par to send them back. Happy and making a nice living twisting Prestige balloons Franklin
