Mint imperials, or xtra strong mints.

They don't turn into mush if left in the glovebox, and they don't spawn hundreds of little wrappers. And they taste good too! What more could you want in a sweet?

Hum... does anyone make beer flavoured ones?

I don't really eat sweets much, certainly not in the car anyway. So maybe I'm missing out on something  :? I guess Extra Strong Mints are about the most likely for me to buy if I'm on a long journey.
