Whatever happened to these anyway? I remember those leaving my life as quickly as they had entered it when I was little

These are never more than an arms reach away from me. Superior mint format for breath enhancement imo.

Great for freshening up your buttcrack too

[–] v4ld1z@lemmy.zip 5 points 1 year ago

Whatever floats your boat or something lol

May have to try that. Actually I've had an altoid BJ before - these would probably be a good alternative and lower the choking risk. Should really get an ad-man on this.

For when you're feeling "not so fresh" down there.

[–] nifty@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

But how does your butt have the moisture to melt these? How much do you sweat?

What do you call them? Trying to find any information on them. And it's weird to keep referring to these gum-mints as "these" and "them" :D

From memory: mint fresh strips

Googling....

Yup, advertising works

"Breath freshening strips", I'm fairly sure? "Listerine Breath Strip" should get you at least started.

Haven't seen these in more than a decade here in Germany

[–] glimse@lemmy.world 5 points 1 year ago

Looks like you can grab a pack of 12 for....€28.39...on Amazon.de! What a bargain

[–] Swedneck@discuss.tchncs.de 5 points 1 year ago (2 children)

what are they even? it looks like a plastic sheet dispenser but from the COOL MINT i can only guess it's some sort of mint-flavoured gelatin sheets or something?

[–] NakariLexfortaine@lemm.ee 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

You got it pretty dead on.

It's a mint sheet, dissolves on the tongue and freshens breath. They were a fairly popular novelty when they first came out, advertised as a quicker alternative to a mint candy or gum.

gods menthol enjoyers are out of their minds, regular mint gum is already bad enough!

[–] HEXN3T@lemmy.blahaj.zone 6 points 1 year ago

They're mint tabs. I had one before, they're pretty potent.
