I keep a tin in my purse. They calm the tum when you're on the run and can't get a cup of tea.

and just for a laugh:
I'm the altoids queen! I have 3 tins at all times! Peppermint for the belly, ginger for the nausea, and cinnamon for when I'm feeling great (I just like it!)
I will always need a rather large purse...

Are you kidding! I consider myself The Altoid Queen also! I am never with out! The best thing I have noticed is if I get that sudden hunger feeling and can not eat just yet, a few Altiods and I am good! Karin

Yeah. Ginger ones are hard to find, but they are safe.
Definetely NO caffeine in them. Don't know why you thought that.
I love my altoids!

just so you know, artificial flavors are not neccesarily a no-no. They are just fine--especially in altoids. Heather even mentions taking altoids as pills before a dinner in her book! So, they most def. are safe.
The ginger ones are hard to find, but I try to always keep my eyes open. Once I found them at a Walgreens. Hopefully walmart has them for you. If not, you can order them online at a place like amazon probably!
Have fun altoid shopping!
