Foosh Energy Mints
Vroom Foods produces a line of energy enhanced candies, including mints. Foosh Mints. Unlike other energy mints I have reviewed, Foosh mints deliver all the goods in just one (slightly over-sized) piece.
Each mint contains approximately the same amount of caffeine as the average cup of coffee. Not bad at all. At the same time. You get other energy drink staples such as taurine and B-vitamins.
Foosh Mints are peppermint flavored, and quite strong. ‘Altoids’ like. Very little chemical aftertaste, so long as you suck on them (as intended). Should you decide to bite into one though, expect a flavor resembling that of a mint flavored aspirin. Also, the texture is just a bit… odd? They dissolve into a bit of a ‘grit.’ maybe a poor choice words, it wasn’t unpleasant, just kind of different.
Quite potent for the purposes of energy enhancement, they are a suitable replacement for a cup of coffee. In my caffeine addicted opinion, it’s an excellent finisher to your morning java. Completely eradicated that nasty coffee breath as well! Amen for that!!!
Availability will be a bit spotty; I had never actually heard of Foosh before a company spokesperson contacted me. So, if you’re interested in trying them out, an online retailer is going to be your best bet.
Do I recommend them? They are in the upper tier of products in this category. I’d like to see more packaging options, but that stuff comes with time as the product gains traction. Give them a shot, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.
