You don't make many friends, as it turns out. Apparently, they "taste like burning" or "smoked band-aids"

I always wondered what the staff at current did on their free time. Did you actually buy that?

They need to change the name on the tin from savory bacon mints to smokey bacon mints.
They went a bit overboard with the artificial smoke flavor.
I love bacon but those mints were not even close! - 3 years ago

It's not really clear from the ingredients if there is real pig in there:
Dextrose, Corn Syrup, Magnesium Stearate, Bacon & Mint Flavors, Acesulfame Potassium, Maltodextrin.
How could they not be good?

Are bacon mints vegetarian? Not sure which answer would be more gross :)

This is sad because I really do love bacon...this stuff just tasted like someone made a delicious batch of bacon then threw the bacon in a trash, pulled out a fresh band aid and sauted it in the burnt bacon grease.
On a positive note, its aftertaste was much more pleasant and bacony!
