For real. Sour altoids were the best mint candy thing that was ever made.
Luvvie
The new strawberry ones aren't half bad. I really like them.
Wait they made new ones?????????
They aren't sour, just a minty strawberry.
Huh. Maybe I'll try them. Still want my tangerine sours back, though

I used to buy loads of those then one day they stopped.

CarlosOfNightvale
I had a square tin as a wallet for months
kidmental
Def not a mint, but candy indeed!
Technically it was originally supposed to be for your breath, and Altoids is a mint-making company, so it's rather ambiguous
Ambiguously Artificially flavored mint thing
An excellent name for it, I think
Lowel, I hate when they stop making things without a trace and never tell us why... sometimes it's not the obvious reasons either.
Sorry, but thats an assumption.. the original canisters say curiously strong peppermint, this one says curiously strong artificial flavor
I suppose that's true
FurFetishist
"Curiously Strong" is their slogan. Peppermint is a flavor, and IIRC the only naturally flavored one. The rest are at least part artificial.
Their full slogan was, "The Original Celebrated Curiously Strong Mints".
I used to eat them all in one sitting and my tastebuds where ruin for the day

Nope, not the only one! IDK why either...

One of my 'fondest' memories was eating a couple tins while chewing gum. Started to taste funny, turns out made the roof of my mouth bleed
thedodecahedron
haha i like you maureen
Why thank you geometric Imgurian.
from all the acid burning through that thin skin
Same. Completely worth it. There's still empty tins all over my mom's house to this day
Nuttburger
I thought Altoids tins were made to hold anything but altoids
No, we don't use them for anything
CreativeWritingJudge
...is she a hoarder, or are the tins used for something?
Neither. They're just kind of scattered around the house in odd places
I found one recently and it made me miss the sourness and my childhood
No idea why they stopped making them. If my experience was any indication they were flying off the shelves
InsertTrollHere
Quick Google says due to low sales
Maybe they where bad as in the ingredients where bad. Someone look it up?! I don't care if it's bad they where so fucking good.

I used to eat the whole tin in a night. Who am I kidding more like 10 minutes.
Same here and my tastebuds always suffer but it was worth it
Eat them so fast you burn your tongue. Been there man.
DarianStephens
They used to literally burn the inside of my mouth. It would bleed and bits of flesh would peel off, but it was still fun.
For real and after that everything you ate didn't taste like is should be

I had finally gotten over the loss and hadn't thought about them in years. Now this. Now the craving resumes.

We do have altoids in Australia. I don't know what everyone else is talking about...
Did you have the sour ones, though?
The ones I had were sour, but I don't know if they were THE sour ones.
Tangerine, Mango, and Raspberry. They even called them sour. And they were the best.

Eh mediocre and overrated. I'd rather a drumstick or a magnum, to be honest.
You forgot cherry-ripe! - American thats been to Australia
asm80dfa8sdfj
We have Milo, Caramello bars, and an Maltesers aren't really better than Whoppers, just different. If you combined the best of both though,
that would really be something. I've heard Tim-Tams are on the way. I've you've only purchased your American candy in Australia, it's likely
the UK version. I'm living in a country that only gets UK candy, and the UK versions of our candy/chocolate are all inferior.

For real. Sour altoids were the best mint candy thing that was ever made.
Luvvie
The new strawberry ones aren't half bad. I really like them.
hispanicyankee
Wait they made new ones?????????
Luvvie
They aren't sour, just a minty strawberry.
hispanicyankee
Huh. Maybe I'll try them. Still want my tangerine sours back, though
Havacado
the best way to get a favorite product back is to do what I did: call 1-800-WRIGLEY and tell them how much you loved the Sours
FuzzyX
I used to buy loads of those then one day they stopped.
Tikityler
I miss the Vanilla ones. (Might be crazy and they were not altoid brand, I don't remember)

Was it worth the thin layer of skin that your inadvertently removed from the roof of your mouth. Of course it was.

They helped my dad quit smoking. It was only for a year but it was a good week for him and us.
Nerdygasm
That was not on purpose but I'm not taking it back, lol

And the tin was quite good as well

I just like little containers. Probably pills, buttons, candies, Screws
CarlosOfNightvale
I had a square tin as a wallet for months
kidmental
Def not a mint, but candy indeed!
hispanicyankee
Technically it was originally supposed to be for your breath, and Altoids is a mint-making company, so it's rather ambiguous
kidmental
Ambiguously Artificially flavored mint thing
hispanicyankee
An excellent name for it, I think
kidmental
Lowel, I hate when they stop making things without a trace and never tell us why... sometimes it's not the obvious reasons either.
kidmental
Sorry, but thats an assumption.. the original canisters say curiously strong peppermint, this one says curiously strong artificial flavor
hispanicyankee
I suppose that's true
FurFetishist
"Curiously Strong" is their slogan. Peppermint is a flavor, and IIRC the only naturally flavored one. The rest are at least part artificial.
kidmental
Their full slogan was, "The Original Celebrated Curiously Strong Mints".
noneyobusisness
I used to eat them all in one sitting and my tastebuds where ruin for the day
hikingandjeeping
The feels.

I had the orange, red, green, and purple cans at the same time and combined them all in one hit... I saw god... he said hi

Closest i could get nowadays would be sweetart shockers, but nothing will compare to these
gr8fulgrapefruit
I choked on these Altoids trying to prove to my friend I could handle the sour. She ended up doing the heimlech maneuver on me.
LloydMadel
Where?
gmward0824
I love your passion. What a inspiration! :)
woolyworm53
I'm salivating at the thought. I'd cut my tongue eating so many of these motherfuckers
DruidNature
So I'm not the only one that got their tongue cut eh? My friends use to joke me. I don't get how they didn't. :(
woolyworm53
Nope, not the only one! IDK why either...

maureen1
One of my 'fondest' memories was eating a couple tins while chewing gum. Started to taste funny, turns out made the roof of my mouth bleed
thedodecahedron
haha i like you maureen
maureen1
Why thank you geometric Imgurian.
maureen1
from all the acid burning through that thin skin
hispanicyankee
Same. Completely worth it. There's still empty tins all over my mom's house to this day
Nuttburger
I thought Altoids tins were made to hold anything but altoids
hispanicyankee
No, we don't use them for anything
CreativeWritingJudge
...is she a hoarder, or are the tins used for something?
hispanicyankee
Neither. They're just kind of scattered around the house in odd places
noneyobusisness
I found one recently and it made me miss the sourness and my childhood
hispanicyankee
No idea why they stopped making them. If my experience was any indication they were flying off the shelves
InsertTrollHere
Quick Google says due to low sales
noneyobusisness
Maybe they where bad as in the ingredients where bad. Someone look it up?! I don't care if it's bad they where so fucking good.

Skizzlesnap
I used to eat the whole tin in a night. Who am I kidding more like 10 minutes.
noneyobusisness
Same here and my tastebuds always suffer but it was worth it
Skizzlesnap
Eat them so fast you burn your tongue. Been there man.
DarianStephens
They used to literally burn the inside of my mouth. It would bleed and bits of flesh would peel off, but it was still fun.
noneyobusisness
For real and after that everything you ate didn't taste like is should be
dosenostra
I had finally gotten over the loss and hadn't thought about them in years. Now this. Now the craving resumes.
noneyobusisness
Same here I found an old tin
ForgotAboutIt
Did you eat it?
noneyobusisness
Sadly it was empty
dianesawyer
You can sell it on ebay actually.

Dude I fuckin loved the tangerine ones. My Mom used to put them in my Valentine's Day care packages bc I was lame and had no girlfriend.
KarenBroadway
Omg! Tangerine was so good!!!
ILovedUnicornsFirst
Lol That took a turn I wasn't expecting. Your mom sounds sweet and I'm sure you weren't/aren't lame.
MeganEulene
They are for sale on amazon for $500

I once ate so much sour candy (toxic waste and warheads) that my tongue literally turned black

Cool

Dang was it worth it?

F*ck yeah it was the best Christmas ever
noneyobusisness

Doestheusernamereallymatter
As a european, what's up with the name's of your candy?
frickfracksnicketysnack
That's just the name of the brand, I'm not sure what you're trying to say.
slimstebow
I recently found a local Walgreens that still sells warheads... my life is much happier
tiniweiner
The sell warheads everywhere here idk what your talking abput
slimstebow
Man where I live they disappeared for a decade and then recently just started showing back up
SuperBobKing
I'm pretty sure they are cheap to buy in bulk on Amazon.

I bought them on Amazon once but they were all melted and screwed up when they arrived

We have something similar here, but they aren't sour.

G'day my friend

I'm unsure if you are actually Australian or not, but in my experience no-one here actually says "g'day".
The2ndHank
Where the fuck are you then? Everyone says it in Albury-Wodonga.
MostValuableDickbutt
South-East Queensland. It explains why everyone says it where you're from because it's in the middle of nowhere

Yeah I notice older peeps say it in more rural/inland areas.

YES! Except our local dealer had more...ufo/discus shaped ones, not kool mint shaped ones. Still. Yes. Very yes.

Glad to help! I've just realized how similar candy dealers and drug dealers are. Both weigh out and distribute "fun that's bad" for cash.

True! But still altoids are #1 on the list then war heads and everything else is not worthy

Down at rocket fizz they got toxic waste candy which are like warheads but less flavor and more pain

We do have altoids in Australia. I don't know what everyone else is talking about...

Did you have the sour ones, though?
LordMoo
The ones I had were sour, but I don't know if they were THE sour ones.

Tangerine, Mango, and Raspberry. They even called them sour. And they were the best.

They got men handing out Vegemite sandwiches, I hear.

they sell maltesers in Murica... they aight I guess.
minipancho94
jokes on you, my target carries Tim-Tams. bit pricey at 3.50+ a box but holy shit they are amazing.
SloppyJimbo
Maltesers are just higher quality whoppers
SenorCulito
Don't forget about the golden gaytimes
MostValuableDickbutt
Eh mediocre and overrated. I'd rather a drumstick or a magnum, to be honest.
slimstebow
You forgot cherry-ripe! - American thats been to Australia
asm80dfa8sdfj
We have Milo, Caramello bars, and an Maltesers aren't really better than Whoppers, just different. If you combined the best of both though,
asm80dfa8sdfj
that would really be something. I've heard Tim-Tams are on the way. I've you've only purchased your American candy in Australia, it's likely
asm80dfa8sdfj
the UK version. I'm living in a country that only gets UK candy, and the UK versions of our candy/chocolate are all inferior.

It's called a Tim-Tam Slam, pleb.

Maltesers are just malted milk balls and nobody likes them because they're trash.

You were downvoted. I came here to show solidarity against maltesers. Blehh.

Caremello koalas do not make this list. Tim tams are the fucking shit though. Aussie tim tams, not SEA ones, different recipe.

Ooo! Wait, Are we still talking candy here?

Milo is a malt chocolate drink powder, and the rest are chocolate products.

They're also missing out on a bunch of very tasty stuff that's available everywhere Nestlée sells chocolate.

Curly... whirleys. The name alone has me intrigued. Send me some.

I'm a bit biased being an Aussie, but they're like thin mints, buy a big bigger, and I think the chocolate and mint tastes a bit better too.
