A couple things... thats an old can, and its now plastered with HUGE warnings and says distributed my Swedish Match NA Inc. Richmond Va. The catch lid has changed to the shape of the Onyx top with a huge warning sticker on it.

that can you have looks awesome by comparison.

The other thing I noticed is the can I have wasn't in the star formation. So either that can was a mistake or they changed that.


Other than that... great review. I have one of these for dessert once in awhile. Not a big mint fan myself.

Are there any pictures floating around of the new can? I would be curious to see it. Thanks for the information.

Sorry if this image is hard to see, my cell sucks as a camera.

Here is the new tin next to the Onyx can so you can see the catch lid id the same. Other than the giant warning the sides and bottom remain about the same.

Wow, cool. Thanks for sharing this!

Nice review Julls. I like the mint too, although all I have is minis so I have to double barrel them. Once I run out of minis and reorder I'll definately get the regular size.

Stupid FDA. The new Onyx can is like the Mona Lisa after someone spray-painted a goatee on her.

Do your kids feel safer yet?

That is horrible! Yet another reason to order from Sweden.

I really enjoy these, haven't opened a tin in a while, but I have a few in the freezer at the moment, I will have to go open one up.

One thing I did notice though, was the ones I've received were not in the star formation, usually SM puts all the white portions in the star formation.. Weird.

Thanks Mongoose! If you enjoy the minis, you'll love the Mint WP.
