Well I guess i might be starting to like all the alternative energy methods. I have been giving pretty good reviews to all of the non energy drink products. This is no exception. Why cause these things have saved my butt multiple times in class when I just can't keep my head up and I am dozing off during important notes (review session for an exam). So these mints from the same company that brings us Buzz Bites are quite good. Tasty, fresh breath, and definitely a good wake up call. Like other non drinks stuff it doesn't get me going in party mode quite a much, but it does a little. It does however really wake you up and pretty quick. I will warn however that both these and buzz bites are quite strong and can cause some stomach pain if taken on an empty stomach... That is definitely not recommended. These mints also don't have much of an aftertaste, which was one of my complaints about the buzz bite chews. So if that bothered you from the chews or you generally hate aftertastes, this might work better for you. I also like that unlike the chocolates that only have 6, you get 12 (which is why this gets a slightly higher score). So if you want to pocket a powerful punch for the emergency pick me up, These mints come highly recommended. Wow I sound like am advertising or some shit. I am sorry, but I do like these things. So has anyone else given them a shot? and with that... I'm out!

Hey these mints sound cool i want. However, more pressing is that I won a sample of that Umph contest but when it got here it was pretty obvious that some suicidal postal worker messed with it since the envelope and both sample packages were broken in one or more spots. I was dissapointed I didn't get to try it, but it was nice to win something. Also, I think I might have quite a few energy drinks not on your list. I also noticed you have quite a few I don't have in my collection... perhaps a trade could be arranged if I were able to find them again. CB

Posted by: steve at June 9, 2005 04:53 PMI ordered four packs of these things and they are awesome. However, the only after taste is that my throat sort of stings a bit, but if after eating or drinking something (besides water) it went away. These will def. be handy in the future!

Posted by: Dan at February 2, 2006 10:46 AMI had these foosh mints tested for the level of caffeine (my dad works at a lab) and they only contain 72 mg of caffeine. Kind of sucks they’re marketing them at 100mg when the truly aren’t. They do taste good but I guess it’s a mental buzz (pseudo caffeine mint).
Posted by: Mike at February 28, 2006 08:55 AMI was concerned when I read the above posting. I love these mints!!! I rely on them to keep my daughter awake on her five hour boring drive home from the university. They help keep her awake during her drives and during class when she has had a late night. My son enjoys them, too! He sells them to his friends at the high school. I contacted the manufacturer, to ask him about the caffeine content. He said he has every batch tested for caffeine content and offered to send me the certificate of analysis showing a full 100mg per piece! His guess is that the guy's dad didn't fully extract the caffeine. Anyway, as my son says, "Foosh Rocks!".
Posted by: Sally at November 30, 2006 06:44 PMWHOA!!! These Mints are powerful! I rely on them to keep my daughter alert during her long drive home from university! They work!!! I was a little concerned when I read the above comment, so I contacted the manufacturer. He says that the guys dad probably didn't extract all the caffeine, that each batch of his mints are tested for caffeine content by an independent lab. Don't go dissin' the Foosh! They are literally a life saver!
