Spry Xylitol Berry Blast Mints Sugar Free Candy - Promote Oral Health, Increase Saliva Production, Stop Bad Breath, Non-GMO, Gluten-Free, 240 Count (Pack of 1)

Good taste. Solid enough to suck on or chew. Smooth on the tongue. Effective for dry mouth. I'm not sure I would use them to fight bad breath though. The smell isn't strong enough to overpower rank breath. I have a weak stomach, so I can only eat them sparingly. Doesn't rot your teeth. I'm not too satisfied with the price, but there weren't many better options.

I got these because I wanted something sweet, crunchy, and also low calorie. I like berry flavor so I thought I'd give these a go. They're actually so good!!! 240 pieces for $10 might seem KIND OF expensive because they're a bit small, but, if you think about it, it's not that bad, because unless you decide to eat the whole jar in a day, it should last you for quite a while. 240 is actually a lot. Plus, they taste so good that I think it's worth it. And they're supposed to be good for your teeth!

Let me start off by admitting that I thought I was going to be getting Spry berry flavored gum when I purchased this product. The package looks identical to the Spry gum packages and I just assumed it was gum, despite the 'mints' labeling. However after popping the first piece in my mouth, I knew this was not the case.After a brief moment of disappointment, I was then hit by the realization that these taste really good! While it wasn't the gum I was expecting, I am still glad I got them.When you first open the package you will get a strong odor resembling very closely the smell of Strawberry favored Nesquik milk. Even the color of these mints is pink. Not unlike its smell, the taste is very much similar to the strawberry flavored Nesquik milk as well. Very smooth sweet sugar-like taste, which has a surprisingly 'creamy' flavor texture to it. They remind me of some other sugar-flavored candies I have had in the past, but I just can't put my finger on it at the moment. Either way these are extremely tasty, and it wouldn't be hard to eat 2-3 dozen in one sitting!As for the texture of these candies (which I will call candy, since they are definitely not mints) is tough at first with similarity in flavor, feeling and hardness to a jaw-breaker, then has a 'crumbly' texture once you bite down on them. But at first they are quite hard, so if you have weak teeth, beware not to just grab a handful and start chewing. After a few seconds of mouth-acid breakdown, they are easily chewed (or sucked on).Overall I am presently surprised. I have had a few different Xylitol flavored 'mints' (Epic Dental fruit flavored Xylitol mints for example, which are still really good BTW) in the past, and these just might be the most interesting and tastiest. And you cannot beat the fact that they are good for your teeth! In a way it feels wrong to indulge on these because they taste so much like real sugar candies. But then you remind yourself that they are essentially the exact opposite of sugar, and you pop in a few more pieces!However, I am docking one star because as others have pointed out, there is Chinese raw materials used in this product (I would assume the Xylitol is from China). And like others, when it comes to food, I do not trust Chinese products. Most everything is made in China nowadays, but I draw the line when it comes to things I am going to ingest. But they taste so good you are willing to look the other way to enjoy these. Although I probably wouldn't get them again for this reason. Once Spry stops using China based raw materials for their gum and mints, I might just become a lifetime buyer. But until then, I will stick to other mint and gum products not influenced by Chinese materials.

I've ordered these a couple times. About 200 come in a small container, and the mint / lozenge is small, about the size of a tablet of aspirin. It tastes like pleasant sweet raspberry & blueberry flavor with a very mild, hardly noticeable mint. It is sugar free and is sweetened with Xylitol. Helps sweeten your breath and promote saliva for after-meal dental hygiene. It is also a nice alternative to candy when you have a craving for a sweet treat and want to stay away from sugar or artificial sweeteners like sucralose or aspartamine. I would definitely buy them again even though they are kinda expensive but I do like the SPRY brand and have frequently bought their cinnamon flavored xylitol sweetened gum.

We recently purchased several Spry products = the berryblast mints, and the lemon mints, and a couple of the containers of gum as well. We all agree that the taste is pretty good, but not so much that you or your kids will be eating them like candy!I purchased these because I wanted to change the environment of my mouth because I've had some problems with very soft teeth. After reading that using Xylitol products could help prevent dental problems like decay and gum problems, I really wanted to give it a try, hoping to prevent our kids from going through the same problems.I've always been really careful about my teeth, but have always had bad teeth. As a kid we went to the dentist every 6 months like clockwork, had floride treatments, braces, brushed 3x a day, and started flossing as a teen. As an adult I've taken really good care of my teeth because I've learned to hate going to the dentist! After doing quite a bit of reading about changing your dental health by changing what you eat/drink, and the dental products you use, I ordered my 1st order of Xylitol products. All of them are really good as far as taste, and the toothpaste leaves my teeth very smooth - even more so than my regular floride toothpaste.I read a couple of books on the subject, and looked at a couple of online resources. The best value in the books seemed to be "Kiss Your Dentist Goodbye", at a little over $10 on Amazon.I'll have to do an update to let you know how our kids do on the products. All I can do for myself is try not to lose any teeth, and try to prevent getting dentures! I already have lots of fillings and lots of crowns - which are SO expensive! I wish there were a way to get away with not getting them, but having teeth break,unfortunately has been par for the course for me.I'm hopeful the Xylitol products work better than what we've been doing! The cost is very reasonable, well worth giving it a try, and because they taste good,there's no pain in trying something different. We all tried the Biotene products, and that didn't go over well at all. Except for the toothpaste and oral rinse none of us liked any of the other products - gum, mouth spray, etc. They were also a bit on the expensive side. We also tried Smart Mouth rinse and mints, and they were so awful we threw all of it away! It's supposed to keep your mouth moist, but it didn't at all, and the taste was horrible - the kids and I couldn't bear to use the products.So, of all the products we've tried, the xylitol products are definately the best value!SmartMouth Sugarfree Mints, Great Mint Flavor (Pack of 8)Biotene PBF Plaque Dissolving Toothpaste, 4.5-Ounce Tubes (Pack of 2)Xlear Spry Berryblast Mints, 240 PiecesXlear Spry Lemonburst Sugarfree Mints, 240-CountXlear - Spry Gum Fresh Fruit, 100 gumXyliwhite Non-Fluoride Toothpaste Gel 6.40 OuncesKiss Your Dentist Goodbye: A Do-It-Yourself Mouth Care System for Healthy, Clean Gums and Teeth
