    Just a few days ago I was watching Antiques Roadshow and learned that the Michelin man apparently has a name: Bibendum.

    Can’t imagine why everyone just says “Michelin man”, lol.

        The slogan Nunc est bibendum (“Now is the time to drink”) is taken from Horace’s Odes (book I, ode xxxvii, line 1).
