Q) NON-GMO?

A). Yes. All ingredients in Meltzer's Puremints and OraPure Herbal Breath Spray are carefully sourced and selected to be non-GMO.

Q) WHY ARE THERE TINY WHITE CRYSTALS ON THE PEPPERMINTS? THEY ARE NOT THERE ALL THE TIME.

A) These are natural menthol crystals. They may look like a very fine dust or tiny clumps. They form from temperature changes, since the menthol component of the peppermint oil is naturally volatile and forms crystals when cooled. A high amount of pure peppermint oil is used in the mints and this naturally occurs. This would not occur if artificial flavor, less pure oil or small amounts of oil were used. It’s part of the pure freshness.

Q) HOW SHOULD I STORE THE MINTS? I USUALLY KEEP THEM IN MY PURSE OR POCKET AND IN MY CAR.

A) Mints can be stored at room temperature. Storing at room temp, or cooler, is good. If they get warm it is not a problem, but if kept at room temperature the flavor stays true and lasts longer, just like any other candy or mint.

Q) WHAT GIVES THE MINTS THEIR NICE COLOR?

A) The light green of the peppermints, spearmints, and matcha green tea and the golden browns of the licorice,  gingers, and cinnamon are from the natural ingredients used, the herbs and oils. No dyes or synthetic coloring agents are used.
