Kept on Wikipedia:Smint
Smint is a type of breath mint. All Smint candies have a triangular shape and many are engraved with an "S". They are known for their packaging that dispenses one mint at a time
History
Smint mini-mint pastilles were the first product from Spanish multinational Chupa Chups S.A designed for an adult market. In the 1990s Chupa Chups targeted adult customers wanting a sugar free product. After four years of development, Smint was introduced to the market in 1994 as a subsidiary brand. By 2001, Smint was the top-selling mint in its class in 90% of the markets where it was available. [1]
Main ingredients
Aspartame, Xylitol, flavoring, partially hydrogenated vegetable oil, and phenylalanine are used to make Smint.[citation needed] Xylitol has been demonstrated to have a plaque-reducing effect by attracting and starving the sucrose-seeking micro-organisms that cause tooth decay. [2]
Smint has been endorsed by Toothfriendly, an international dental ratings organization.[citation needed]
Smint & gum
Each piece is composed of one layer of chewing gum and another of Smint candy. Smint & Gum is available in the following flavors: fresh mint & strong mint, strawberry and blackberry; in blister packs containing 8 pieces or in a bottle containing 50 pieces.[citation needed]
