Peppermint Pinwheel Starlight Mints Hard Candy (1 Pound Bag - Approx. 90 Count)

These are wonderful mints to keep on hand. I've only ever been able to find them in a store around Christmas time and I like to have them on hand year round.

Love that they are individually wrapped. I can toss a few in my purse.

These peppermints are a good size for snacking, but watch out! They contain Titanium Dioxide (TiO2), a chemical that adds artificial whitening to the peppermints. However, this chemical compound provides no nutritional value, and while it's not inherently harmful, it has potential to cause health complications that have not yet been discovered. While these are good Easter candies you could give out to your kids, I'd refrain from giving these to younger children. There are other manufacturers that can make peppermints without TiO2, so I'd recommend you look into those options if you plan on giving these to your 4-or-5-year-old. They're a good size and come with a reasonable count for the price, though.

These mints were fresh and had a good peppermint taste to them, not too sweet. I got over 1# as well which was nice to see.

They're ok but I prefer the kind that are less mint .

In the 1970s, the kids called things "mint" to mean "great." Today, auctioneers use it to describe old things that remain in pristine condition. I would describe these peppermint mints as "mint" but not in either of those senses. They simply taste like mints and isn't that what we expect of mints?

Who doesn't know of these classic hard candies! Peppermint Pinwheel Starlight Mints have been in my life probably since I was born! They were always in my Nona's candy dish, and my Moms candy dish, just everywhere. I love the minty taste of these mints, I love the red and white and I love the fresh crispness it brings to my breathe!One great memory I have with these mints is building a candy train and using these mints as the wheels! These are truly a mint with history!

Be careful as moving through the system in a padded envelope was probably not the best idea. a large portion are broken but still taste great.
