I ran across them at a local Cost Plus World Market several months ago. I like them; like all
Altoids, they're very strongly flavored, almost like eating candied ginger.

I received a tin of them as part of a Christmas gift, but never opened them. I'll have to hunt them
down to taste.

I haven't seen these. Are these regular altoids like the cinnamon or peppermint or are they the
sours like the citrus, tangerine, or apple?

So far I've tried the traditional peppermint, the new wintergreen (yum), cinnimon (okay), and
yesterday I tried the new gum. Just like any Altoid product the gum was intense.

I have not tried the ginger flavored yet.

When I was pregnant I tried the citrus. It would sometimes help w/ morning sickness. I haven't seen
the ginger or I would have tried those as well. ~Kat

Like regular Altoids in shape and texture ("chalky" seems to describe the latter, which is not to
say I don't like it).

Bought some at Cost Plus World Market a couple weeks ago. Nicely ginger-y. You can buy them

Like Bob, I found them at a local "World Market". The display said, "for a limited time" and
sure enough, they are gone and nowhere to be found. I bought two tins and though that they were
quite good.

I really wanted to like these- I love the other Altoids and I like ginger - but for some reason,
these tasted just awful to me. I had to spit it out, couldn't even finish it. -jen Half the people
