Title: Sugar-free Mentos
Post by: kevvosa on March 21, 2006, 04:16:24 pm: Found some in Morrisons today - they taste lovely for a sugar free product. Will be buying some again. Ive heard they do mints too.

I will look out these. What flavour are they?

In small quantities its fine. If you eat loads, the effect is not nice!
