So i grew up absolutely loving those round white mints my mom used to buy, and my friends parents used to keep in a candy bowl. I know allan or kerr or someone made them in Canada, but does anyone know where you can buy them down here? I have had a ridiculous craving for mint candies lately and went to the store and was dismayed at all the ones they had. Not to mention i'm not a fan of the mint flavours used in most of them.

Has anyone seen them in the U.S. or know where i can get them? i even try amazon lol.

ohh i forgot about that site! eesh..some of those prices though lol. but hey have most of the stuff i miss.

Mint Imperials are supposed to be similar but the middle is hard and crumbly rather than chewy.

ya i like the soft center ones..i'm fussy with alot of foods, its why i dont like pears or watermellon, that texture sometimes sandy kinda puts me off.

PM me your mailing address and I'll send some. I'm not kidding! I'm in the US every other weekend. I'll just send them from there so you don't have to worry about "importing food" items!

Oh no no no, i could not do that. lol. Sooner or later this year i have to go back anyway to renew my passport and my uncle lives in NIagara. So i'll just warn him ahead of time to make space for me in the garage for stuff :P ya know..cans of maple syrup, real coke, mints, cookies..real KD...lol :)

I would not hurt you you have a beautiful baby to take care of! biggrin.gif I don't think i am..i mean there are no other weird things going on. my thyroid finally stableised according to my bloodtest last week though so finally i can stay on this prescription and see what happens.

You could try a British Export store. They may have them as well locally if you have such a place...

so i did a Google search of those, and did fine one or two in Chicago but oh lord..they are all the way east on the waterfront. that's one heck of a drive to get too. :(

And no guarantee they would even have them either. Looks like your best option would be the online places suggested I would think. Either that or take a trip to England or even Canada and see if you can get them...
