does the icy mint have "new flavor" like the spearmint? I hope not because the new flavor tastes bad. I liked the original spearmint, but can't find

I'm not sure if the Icy Mint I bought last time said "new flavor", but it tasted like the same peppermint that I've purchased before. I usually prefer a Spearmint gum, but the flavoring in the spearmint Jolt didn't seem to last as long as the icy mint. Neither flavor really lasted very long, but the icy mint seemed to taste better and the flavor lasted a little longer.

No, the flavor of "icy mint" continues to be peppermint. It definitely isn't spearmint.

I do not know...will look into it...however the mints came highly recommended by medical professional and I must admit they taste great...I wish they would offer them at a special price sometime.

I LOVE the old raspberry- the 'new and improved' flavor is awful. It is way too sweet and now has a sweetner wang to it I camnot stand. I think their test market must have been a bunch of 12 year olds. I have given it to several friends to try and no one so far has liked it. Please write to Alacer to tell them how you feel!

I can't check right know but it was very recent. I was surprised. Ok my wife says best by 2018. My last ounce I had over 6 years. Kept it in fridge it was always good. Goodluck to you

Yes, unfortunately this is absolutely true. It's unfortunate because it has ruined the product. It leaves a nasty aspartame aftertaste that I just can't handle. Returning my 3 cans. This was one of meals everyday since the late 90s. Now I have to figure something else out I guess. I suggested that Natures Plus make a Spirutein Classic. They'll notice that their sales drop immediately from this change and probably change back. I wrote the company directly to inquire about the change.

I also have had this experience. I have been buying this for years from Amazon and a local organic grocer. I agree that both the smell and taste is awful and I am considering changing brands. Even returned one because I thought something was wrong with it, but the replacement is the same. I would love to know what has been altered. I have a fairly high tolerance, but this is really bad.

I can answer my own question now, since I just received my order. In short, it smells like the ingredients: spearmint, peppermint, and rosemary oil... mild smell, and not bothersome at all. I thought that the product had urine in it (based on the description with the newer package Amazon listings), but there is NO urine. This older packaging shown seemed to have better ratings on Amazon than the new package, but the manufacturer says the ingredients have been the same (at least since 2008 by the online MSDS sheet). Of note, I received the 28.5 oz jug (new package) and not the 20 oz (old package) with my order. I can answer my own question now, since I just received my order.

Anna, I do Apologize you ordered the wrong flavor. But I stock all my inventory at Prime Amazon and once the order is placed they pull the inventory out of stock and mail it immediately. This is why Amazon is able to deliver this product quickly. Its pretty much automated and probably shipped already.. If amazon did not mail it yet you can cancel the order and reorder the correct flavor you want.. Please let me know if this answered your question.

I am sorry - I've not tried Starbucks HotCocoa Peppermint yet, but Stephen's is amazing!

It is sweet-ish. Not sweet like sugared gum or even the new Trident type artificially sweetened gum. It is not even as sweet as the mint flavored nicotine gum.Try it, you'll like it!

I guess it depends on what you child is used to. I do think they have changed them somehow recently. My son used to like them and now he does not. The most recent bottle tastes different from what the previous bottles tasted like. I have tried them my self and can attest to the change in taste. It's an aftertaste that is a bit unpleasant really. They are really go vitamins.

It's not your imagination. Been drinking PG Tips for decades (I used to carry it back from Europe in pre-internet ordering days). It is definitely not what it used to be. I've tried several boxes on the assumption I must have gotten a bad batch, but three bad boxes in a row, several months apart, and have sadly come to the conclusion that they changed the blend. Sadness! I'm abandoning the brand.

Dear Angela, It is really a matter of preference. The most popular flavors are Peppermint, Original and Vanilla. Thank you for your inquiry. Best Regards, Bulk Apothecary

No. I never ordered this one again. The flavor is very light; hence "Gold". Pass on this one. The "Black" is very good.

Fresh and Ckean does not contain any mints, menthols or camphors. Sorry I took so long in getting back to you!

There is peppermint oil listed in the ingredients. It also states "flavor*", then below it has "*natural flavor" but it does not explain. There is a website. maybe you can post the question to the company. www.natures-gate.com
