Scotch Mints, also known as spearmint candies, are small, hard sweets typically made with sugar, glucose syrup, and peppermint or spearmint oil for their characteristic refreshing flavor. Originally popularized in Scotland and now enjoyed globally, these mints are often coated in a crisp shell, offering a satisfying crunch. Though primarily consumed as breath fresheners or after-dinner treats, Scotch Mints are high in sugar and provide minimal nutritional value, meaning they should be enjoyed in moderation. They contain no major allergens and are usually fat-free, aligning with certain dietary preferences. However, their high carbohydrate content makes them unsuitable for low-sugar diets. While they might lack substantive health benefits, Scotch Mints can be a pleasant way to stimulate saliva production and freshen breath temporarily, making them a common choice for casual snacking or social settings.
