Altoids
« on: January 28, 2007, 01:14:49 PM »
Has anyone tried the Dark Choclate Dipped Mints by Altoids?  Better get two tins!  They are fabulous.  I chew them so the chocolate and mint flavors mix.  I got them for my dh because he likes the flavor of mint and chocolate together, while I'm not crazy about that combo...but I tasted them and have been snitching them for the last two days. 
I've never knitted anything I could recognize when it was finished.  Actually, I've never finished anything, much to my family's relief.

I am absolutely addicted beyond what is even remotely reasonable to Altoids. I have a tin of the chocolate ones and haven't tried them yet. I'm fearful that I will love them too much. I'm trying to do the food pyramid and get some of this tonnage off and somehow chocolate Altoids scare me.
But soon, I will eat them and eat them well....next time a nasty chocolate craving hits.
I have finally found the bar I can't get thrown out of....

I even like them  and that combo of flavors isn't one of my favorites.  You'll probably really enjoy them.

Well, let me put it this way...There is just one left in the tin and I think I've been the only one eating them.  So, you may want to leave them sealed up for the moment.  That's what I should have done, needing to take off a few (hysterical laughter and nose growing by an inch every three seconds) pounds, myself.

Oh, crap.  So it wasn't just me who ended up eating the entire tin in less than 72 hours.   :-[

Nope, not just you.  I sneaked to your house and ate some of your altoids, too.

That makes me feel better about it.  ;)

I'm tempted to pick up another tin of them, knowing full well that it's a bad idea.
