It's the clean fresh explosion of mint. == The Mary Tyler Moore show had a tic-tac joke, way back before electricity was invented and we had to watch tv by candlelight. It was an episode where Mary volunteerd to be a Big Sister to a teenage girl who had a history of drug use. At the end of the episode, the girl and another girl are conspiring in the corner and, eavesdropping, Mary hears one say to the other "oh, i LOVE the reds. i haven't had a red in so long, oh gimme." "only if you give me some of the good stuff you got. like those white ones." they turn to Mary and ask her if she want one. Mary, given the context, of course presumes they're talking about pills, and says, "No, no, thank you, I , I don't believe in doing those" "What? You don't believe in tic-tacs?" So she takes one, tosses it up, and catches it in her mouth (or misses, actually, i think) All paraphrased, but that's basically the joke. Who can turn the world on with a smile?

It’s the clean fresh explosion of mint.

Gotta love the All Candy All The Time theme, though. Dr. Chinese/Candy Genius = husband and wife team. She was the force behind the Periodic Table, though.

The orange ones still taste great, and that's largely why I still buy Tic Tacs rather than Altoids or any such thing; the orange flavor is much more pleasant to me than mint, and, just generally, I'm not fond of anything quite so intense as an Altoid. I don't know how their sales have been doing of late, but I know I'm not about to switch to another breathmint anytime soon. <strong>RESPONSE:</strong> Interesting. Maybe in different parts of the country they are more popular. Yeah - I know what you mean about Altoids. They are definitely not my favorite mints. Well, peppermint isn't. I like their cinnamon flavor. --The Candy Kid Yes, Tic Tacs are still very widely available, as far as I know – they’re at most supermarkets and convenience stores here in Massachusetts.
