Mint (candy) Confectionery flavoured with mint

A mint or breath mint is a food item often consumed as an after-meal refreshment or before business and social engagements to improve breath odor.

Mints sometimes contain derivatives from plants such as peppermint oil or spearmint oil, or wintergreen from the plant genus Gaultheria. However, many of the most popular mints citing these natural sources contain none in their ingredient list or contain only trace amounts.
