A Hole Lot Of Minty Freshness

Advantages: Good price multipack, cool & refreshing, great taste, other varieties available
Disadvantages: None

...cheaper attempts at replicating the polo that just don't make the grade. I've tried the American version of Polos, which are larger in size, but taste nothing like these. Luckily these are readily available in the UK, so you should have no problem picking a pack up in your local supermarket or newsagent. These were given the name Polo after Polar, to give name to the refreshing, cool taste you get from eating them. Each packet contains approx 25 ...
...hole in the middle. They measure 1.9cm in diameter, 0.4cm deep and with a 0.8cm wide hole that's been punched out. On the top of each mint, 'Polo' is embossed twice, perhaps incase you forget what it is your eating! Each tube is wrapped in a green paper wrapper with foil underneath for freshness. Single tubes cost around 23p (Tesco) but are usually more expensive in smaller newsagents/sweet shops. It's a good idea to stock up and get a multipack ...

Review of Polo Mints

Tiny Minty

Advantages: handy sweets
Disadvantages: none

Most of us find the thought of speaking to someone with a bad breath is horrifying which is why we enjoy having chewing gum and minty sweets to instantly freshen up our breath. And for me, I always have Tic Tac around. It's easy to carry and fits perfect on my pocket. I prefered to have the fresh mint flavour because it's refreshing! HISTORY Tic Tac, manufactured by the Italian confectioner Ferrero. It was first produced in 1969, and have been ...
...mint flavor, was then followed by several new varieties of flavour. PACKAGING Sold in small clear plastic boxes with a flip-action lid. It allow one or two of the tiny mints to be tipped out at a time. At the top of this lid, you will find a sticky label which flips open and serve as a tamperproof. The sticky label contains the best before date and the name "Tic Tacs" . A standard size weighs 64g and contains more or less 30 sweets. Well, the packaging ...

Review of Ferrero Tic-Tacs

The Mint WITHOUT the hole

Advantages: delicious fresh minty taste, long lasting, cheap
Disadvantages: rot your teeth

...in case of emergencies). Trebor recently changed the design of their packets of Extra Strong Mints and they can now be easily spotted by the green, red and white packaging with EXTRA STRONG in great big letters. I have tried many other types of mint but I always come back to these. The mints themselves are rather large, similar in size to a ten pence piece, but a lot thicker at around half a centimetre. They have a rather powdery, chalky texture ...
...These mints are very cheap, although the cost varies depending where you buy them. They usually range between 35p and 50p per packet. If you want to write to trebor the address is as follows: Cadbury Trebor Bassett PO Box 7008 Bournville Birmingham B30 2PT UK www.cadbury.co.uk ...

Review of Trebor Extra Strong Mints

MMMM......

Advantages: delicious, no fat and only a few calories
Disadvantages: dont last long when you chew them

well, i first tried a trebor soft spearmint flavoured mint, i absolutely loved and enjoyed it! it was delicious. a lovely chewy center with a crispy white outside. as soon as you chew it all of the lovely spearmint starts to crunch in to your mouth. the mints themselves come in a blue wrapper with shiny foil on the inside but the peppermint ones are green wrapper with shiny foil on the inside. you can get them from anywhere really, your local shop, ...
...fairly expensive) £0.42p. they last quite a long time, (if you go easy on them and dont chew them straight away which i do) and they are absolutely gorgeous. they dont have any fat in them and there is only 160 calories in each pack but beware there is alot of sugar in them so dont cram them down your throat because there bad for you if you eat to many. but they are absolutely lovely and i have been buying them ever since my friend let me try one. ...

Review of Trebor Soft Mints

I'm ****ing bad I do XXX, so screw Polo's

Advantages: Strong bad boys of the mint world, clears the sinuses
Disadvantages: Too hot too handle for some

I had recently become Holey due to an experience with Polo's, a vivid epiphany of downright biblical proportions that can only be described as the mint of God. Sadly however, I was never really a good boy at heart, I could only hold my urges back for so long before I had to cave in, I had failed in my new life to be a good boy. I couldn't really resist Boris Johnson and his boyish charms, “Boris will be Boris” I said to myself, before realising the ...
...I might as well put a wager on it. The start of a slippery slope, “It's the weekend soon, better the beers in” came next, and when I started to realise it I was going full circle. The naughty words that were banished from me, had reappeared with alarming frequency and as if to ask why anyone would limit their vocabulary. As if by magic my lust for XXX had returned with a vengeance. Sadly the confusion between the good and the bad in my little warped ...
