Sugar free mints like a polo, but with a sort of dent rather than a hole.

Does anyone remember these and know what they were called?
Craving them for some reason, so if you know of something similar that would be great too.

Were they Trebor?

I was thinking Trebor too but not sure if they ever did sugar free.

I don't think so, green packet and the mint was very smooth, not the texture of an extra strong mint.

Certs, the American mints are like that but not sure they were ever sold in the UK.

I think they were trebor spearmint.
Have a Google image look.

Coolmints?

that's the old Trebor mints (but i never had sugar free) from the 70s. I miss them. Better than polos and way better than the extra strong mints version they only do now.

Omg I don't know what they were but also loved them. You could suck until the middle disappeared and got a sharp little hole.

I know exactly the ones you mean @hexsnidgett but I can't think of the name 😂

Yes definitely Trebor. Loved them.

any of these @hexsnidgett?

Trevor spearmints

I think they were Coolmints too Butterflystar76

They were Trevor mints, they came in the same flavour as polos too, not just in spearmint.

Trebor not Trevor!

@RomeoRivers I just found the same add and was figuring out how to share the link 😂

Cool mints sounds right!!

I still cannot find evidence of them on line. Stupid internet all trying to flog stuff.

I think this is the badger

Intriguing ^

I think they were Coolmints.
IIRC they had a laxative effect if you ate too many!

Indeed.

I found that out the hard way 😳

I used to like Clorets. The sugarfree ones were white squares with a dent in the middle. The ones with sugar were the same shape but an opaque green colour.

Definitely 'Trebor mints are a minty bit stronger!' Not the modern extra strong ones, just the 7p peppermint ones. Delicious.

Whilst we're talking about it - why don't spearmint POLOs have the little blue specks in them anymore?
