Kitchen and Housewares Reviews of Foosh Energy Mints - 12 pack
Customer Review: Peppy and minty
Summary: 5 Stars
I like this product because I have to keep my tea intake down and I don't like coffee. This works for me.Customer Review: Mmmm... Peppermint-flavored caffeine tablets :-)
Summary: 4 Stars
I used to swear by these, and I still take them semi-regularly. I think they're far and away the best caffeinated mint, and I like them better than soda, which I rarely drink these days.
Foosh mints are far, far stronger than Penguin mints (the first caffeinated mints, as far as I know). A penguin mint is 15mg of caffeine, while a Foosh is 100mg -- half a Vivarin.
They try to play up the "energy" angle, by including things like ginseng and taurine, but it really is just a caffeine tablet with enough peppermint flavor to make it more palatable.
I don't have a problem with the slight bitter tang that the caffeine causes, but you may. Foosh mints are significantly more bitter than Penguins, though much less so than regular caffeine tablets like Vivarin.
They're basically all-artificial, so you don't need to worry about sugar or calories or anything like that. Like diet soda, it forgoes those things in return for a bitter, metallic tang :-)
I'm a big fan of these. One reason for a big pack like this is to let your friends try 'em :-)
Customer Review: Good product that keeps you awake...
Summary: 4 Stars
I bought this product because I have to work the early moring shifts a lot and dont have time for coffee. These mints taste a lot like altoids but have a bumpy texture when they are in your mouth for more than a few seconds. Foosh will def keep you awake and going. The reason I gave it four stars is that it needs that extra kick that gives you a more noticeable burst of energy other than just being awake. Maybe Im just too used to caffine and thats why it needs more of a kick but I also find myself very tired at night on the days I use foosh and thats at just one mint a day. Overall I still think this is a good product and a great idea and I will continue to use these to stay awake.
