I love these mints, and the fact they are sugar free. I heard about the benefits of xylitol and decided to try for myself. It's early days yet but so far I know I love the taste, and there is no weird after-taste. Overall very refreshing. The one thing I was not sure about is the box is a little fragile to be just throwing in my bag - it could either be squashed or fly open or both so I keep it upright in a pocket of its own for now. So far no accidental spills but knowing myself it's bound to happen sooner or later. I would like to request a better closing card box please. Thank you
