About Dinner mints
Dinner mints are small, sweet confections typically enjoyed at the end of a meal. These candies are often made from sugar, corn syrup, peppermint or spearmint oil, and sometimes include chocolate or food coloring for variety. Originating in Western cuisine, they are popular in the United States and Europe as a palate cleanser or a subtle digestive aid. While low in fat, dinner mints are high in sugar, making them a treat best enjoyed in moderation. They provide a refreshing burst of minty flavor that can help mask lingering food odors and leave the mouth feeling clean. Some varieties include natural mint oils, which may offer mild digestive benefits, but the high sugar content can contribute to potential concerns like tooth decay if consumed excessively. Dinner mints are a delightful but indulgent way to finish a meal.
