Trebor "extra strong" mints

[ChristoT]

Anyone else notice that the Trebor extra strong mints aren't as strong as they used to be? They used to hit like a sledgehammer, now they're more like a disappointing Polo.

I was able to handle them at 10! Although eating too many would lock my jaw solid...  :lol a desirable state, I'm sure. I'm sure they're weaker though, after all, gum and polos still taste as strong.

Definitely an acquired taste, but you get used to it after the first few.
