Tic Tac : Bold -- Not Your Typical Breath Mint!

OK, so I'm a mintaholic, and on Friday night, I went to a 7-11 to buy my Eclipse mints, but they didn't have the kind I prefer, so I grabbed a package of TicTac Bold mints.

These mints aren't mints you eat when you're bored in class. They don't taste all that great.

They taste like you've just brushed your teeth...or something. Not saying I don't like brushing my teeth, I love it--I do it twice a day, but I like my mints to have a...semi-sweet taste to them.

I've never had a mint like this before. I guess it's good for people will uber bad breath.

Check'em out!

I'm gonna go be weird somewhere else now..

Speaking of weird-tasting minty production, those Listerine strips have always freaked me out.

In what flavors do tic tac bold mints come in? I like the lime ones, but I swear they aren't mints...I can just pop several packages of them into my mouth for the purposes of sugar.

I like eclipse mints, cinnamon altoids, ice breakers...but I'm more of an avid gum chewer.

As long as it isn't gum.

My dad's a dentist so he gets a ton of the listerine mint packs. He got a free keychain that that packs fit into.

I used to have them sometimes but not anymore; but when my friend's see my keys in my hand, they fight for the listerine strips.

I didn't like the fruit ones, they kind of shocked my mouth.

I don't chew gum either, Becky.

And all my friends think I'm crazy. I haven't had a piece since September 2004...woo.

Anyone try the new listerine spray stuff? Does it work?

I guess, I mean it's just minty listerine in a breath spray. It's as effective as any other breath spray out there.

I don't chew gum because I have braces still and I am parnoid about getting anything caught in them.

Plus, gum loses its flavor too quickley. I prefer Altoids. The cinnimon kind are the best.

And the listerine mint thingers=death.

They like, burn my mouth with minty freshness.

I'm assuming the spray doesn't work as well as the strips though?

I hate those strips. They leave your breath so fresh it hurts to breathe.

I personally prefer the spray to the strips. I think it's just as effective but better tasting.

Anyone remember Binaca? (SP on that one...)
