Wow, that was weird Dana. As I sit here, I'm snarfing down my tin of tangerine altoids!!!

I'll have to try raspberry now. [Smile]

If you remove them from the tin first, they taste even better. :nyuk nyuk nyuk:

I've had tangerine, and they're good, but raspberry are just . . . WOW!

Posted by Narnia (Member # 1071) on :

*nyuk nyuk* indeed mothertree. [Smile]

Actually, mine's more like a *SNORT!*

They make raspberry ones?! I must find some to try. Thus far, my favorite flavor is cinnamon, but raspberry may give it a run for its money....

People! DO NOT SNORT ALTOIDS!!! [Eek!]

The raspberry ones made me gag. But the tangerine ones are very good.

I had a ginger Altoid once and it was disgusting. I think I'll stick with good old wintergreen.

i also feel it my duty to point out that the rasberry ones are not for everyone. if my daughter didn't decide that she liked them, i felt i was going to have to compel myself to finish the tin.

aren't kids great!

There's a funny story behind that, but I refuse to tell it.

You guys have to try the licorice ones. They're the best, whether you like licorice or not.

I have to agree that the Raspberry are definitely my favorite non-mint like Altoids candy. They are soooo tasty.

And my favorite of the mint-types is the licorice.

But for me, the best thing I've found with the name Altoid is the sugar free Sour Cherry and Sour Apple gum. WOW! This gum is tart and sweet and literally seems to explode in your mouth.

We found the sour gum and the Raspberry Altoids in Target Friday night. What a treat!

BTW, does anyone know what one should call the mint-like Altoids vs the Raspberry and Tangerine style Altoids?
