Advantages: tastier that other mints

Disadvantages: gone up in price!

I cannot stand the taste of most mints. The idea of eating something and then having to wash it down with a drink of water does not appeal to me. On saying that I have no problem with mint toothpaste however the day I discover different flavours-maybe strawberry-is the day I no longer brush my teeth with the strong tasting paste!

Spearmint is the only type of mint which I can handle and like to eat. Due to it not being so hot and overpowering when I have one it is perfectly acceptable when wanting fresher breath.

The Polo variety is no different from any other type of spearmint, it's just that they are smaller is size and easy, for me anyway, to not consume the whole packet in one go.

They still come in the regular packaging, only it's a lighter shade like all the other different flavours. A pale green colour, which to be honest, fits the taste quite well. It being weaker and a bit subtle in eating.

Naturally they still have the age old familiar hole in the middle but there is one difference that stands out. Gone are the days when I could pop down the road and pay 17p for a packet. At the moment the cheapest packet I've come across has been for 31p. So either I'm shopping in the wrong areas or the Polo company is most definetly scamming me out of my money!

These are the nicest of mints that you'll come across, especially if you don't want your mouth to feel too hot. Not sure it's worth the money considering the hole but they are tastey and something to munch on when needed.
