      You basically have the problem non americans have with hersheys chocolate. Your head associates mint with toothpaste like how typically europeans attribute butyric acid(found in american hersheys chocolate) to vomit.

      If one had say, had mint bubble gum, drinks, raw mint(south east asian cuisine) or ice cream before getting used to toothpaste, you likely wouldn’t attribute mint to it.

        American here, I do indeed associate vomit with milk chocolate, instead of the other way around.

        Non American here, I do like Hershey’s chocolate and didn’t think of it as vomit. It’s just different.

        I got used to toothpaste that didn’t taste like mint, as a child. Strawberry/cherry/bubble gum flavoured toothpaste was great. As an adult though, you get less variety so it’s some sort of mint. But I agree on this one, I don’t attribute mint as the toothpaste flavour.

        I hate all forms of mint and always have. I hate toothpaste. I’m an outlier here.

      You’re probably one of those people who has a mild allergy or has your brain wires crossed, like those people who think cilantro tastes like soap.

        This is the only reasonable thing anyone has replied with and I would absolutely believe it. Mint tastes like purposely eating cold acid to me. I cannot wrap my head around how anyone enjoys the flavor I’ve experienced.

          They don’t. It’s like those “wait, bananas aren’t supposed to be spicy?” moments. You probably have a mild allergy.

        Literally every one of those items isn’t just something I dislike, but I’m repulsed by. I’ve had numerous arguments over Andes and I’ve been the only one to get nothing when candy canes were given out too many times to count. It’s not dull to me on account of the billion other good foods that exist, but yeah, mint tastes like cold acid in my mouth and no part about it is good or enjoyable.

    Good mint icecream is not strongly minty and is a lovely pairing with chocolate chips.

    Some toothpastes use mint flavour, but this is like the “Guy who’s only watched boss baby watching his second movie ever” analogy, except instead of movies it’s mint-flavoured products.

    The difference between mint with cream and sugar - and mint with ground silicate, sodium lauryl sulfate and sweetener :)

    Well made mint chocolate chip ice cream tastes fucking good. Don’t let the cheap shitty stuff fool you.

    I love mint chip ice cream. I’m laughing, upvoting, and calling you a bastard all at once.

    While I agree with this I still can’t stop eating it. Mint chocolate chip is sooo good.

    Not liking mint ice cream is the sign of a baby palette. You may as well say you dislike olives
