I got these because I used to the peppermint spoons for a drink. Tried these and the peppermint taste is..off a bit. Not sure what it is but they're not bad at all.The ad photo is very deceiving. They comes in these tiny boxes all broken. It also appears to be more candy sticks than it really is when I received them. Otherwise, the candy is good.We started buy this item years ago. They have fantastic flavor, softer then others and the best peppermint candy.Simply put: I have purchased and loved these peppermint sticks before. The seller took no care in packaging, and at least half arrived broken. I had purchased them as a display item for our coffee bar, and most were unusable for that purpose.I like the flavor. They are not only a special flavor treat, but they also help with my digestion.Excellent quality and taste. Left me with extra fresh breath which is an added bonusMost of the candy was broken.
