Pages: 1 | 2 | 3 | (show all) Gin-Gins       #74739 - 05/30/04 08:07 AM Edit Reply Quote jenX Reged: 08/11/03 Posts: 3252 Loc: Richmond, VA i found these at my HFS and tried 'em 'cause the Ginger Altoids are hard to find, still, here ( my Target doesn't carry them, daggone it!). anyway, Gin-Gins. they're pretty cool. Zesty. and not as "curiously strong" as the Altoids, so maybe some people who object to the strength of those might link the Gin-Gins. they're like little hard candies. cheap, too! mmm...... yummy..... -------------------- Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     FOUND THE GINGER ALTOIDS :)       #74765 - 05/30/04 12:15 PM Edit Reply Quote ibsgrl Reged: 04/18/04 Posts: 1060 Loc: Canada But here they aren't so cheap Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Re: Ginger Altoids are NOT awful....       #74802 - 05/30/04 04:30 PM Edit Reply Quote nurturingkneads Reged: 04/01/03 Posts: 370 Loc: NC,USA I thought about cutting them and swallowing them, that way I wont have to drink the tea or taste the altoids....maybe you could try that if ya dont like the taste -------------------- Gretchen Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     I agree with RAchel       #74818 - 05/30/04 06:35 PM Edit Reply Quote BL Reged: 06/01/03 Posts: 3522 Don't know why everyone's so worried about finding these things.

I actually found mine in a little chocolate store in Kensington Market (Toronto)! I'm still yet to see them in the US. I have to agree that they're not so great... a wee bit TOO strong for me. But I bet they'd be good at settling the tummy. -------------------- "Anyone can exercise, but this kind of lethargy takes real discipline." -Garfield Print     Remind Me     Notify Moderator     Gerry...       #74832 - 05/30/04 07:56 PM Edit Reply Quote ibsgrl Reged: 04/18/04 Posts: 1060 Loc: Canada Well Altoids are strong mints that are made in the UK but available in North America. The ginger ones are supposedly helpful for our IBS because they help with cramps, nausea and indigestion. Here is the page about ginger: GINGER Also here are pictures of the altoids!
