Surely, this can’t be a coincidence.

    Handy storage spot :b

    I hadn’t heard of Barkleys before, but it has been ages since I’ve had some nice mints so I am going to see if I can find some of those 😂

    Also, seeing that tin made me miss the tangerine Altoids Sours.

      The Ginger and Orange are my favorites. Given, I’ve only had two flavors, and the Cinnamon ones were good, too.

      They only started appearing in Korea recently, so I bet they’re super popular somewhere else.

      Altoids have been around since, like, 1790. Barkleys have been around since 1996. This is the first I’ve heard of them, and that’s likely because Altoids as a brand is almost as ubiquitous as the brand Velcro.

      I read that some folks find them to be much stronger, so I’ll have to look for some as well!

        Altoids as a name have been around a long time, but they have been just candy ever since Mars bought them. They aren’t even made or marketed in the UK anymore.

        I miss altoids.

      Hit up pd.net. They have a version of them that’s pretty decent. He went through flavor tests with patrons and adjusted it based on their feedback.
