Addicted

I don't wish to make light of addiction problems. I have to admit that I have a problem, though. I go to my local Walgreen's Drug Store every week and buy these little sugar-free cinnamon mint thingies. I'm so addicted. When I'm reading or watching television in the evenings, I can go through a complete tin of them. One after the other. My stomach really hates that. Do I stop? No. I try really hard to stop putting them in my mouth, but I can't hold out for long. I used to smoke. It's better than that, I guess. Cheaper, anyway. I don't think the mints contribute to my macular degeneration problem. The first step is admitting you have a problem. Got one.

You always beat me to the punch line! "It's better than smoking"
I'm still trying to get that monkey off my back!
Are the cinnamon mint thingies, altoids? My son likes those.

sorbitol is my enemy ...my parents and I discovered sugar-free mints back inna day (70's) on a road trip. Imagine 3 people traveling through Europe with gassy bellies...but minty fresh breath.
