 This is not just a mint. Way beyond a mint. It's a tiny little capsule that you swallow. Here's my package of Zellman's Minty Mouth Mints, which I always carry with me. And by the way, I am naked. I don't even want to go to where I got this from. But they're always with me. Zellman's Minty Mouth Mints. You pop two or three in your mouth, you suck on the minty coating, and then you swallow the capsule.
