# except for the ones that are fruity
they obey the rule for closure under preservation of fruit

# always
been my favourite, just in front of the principle of moonlighting

# the principle of moonlighting:
it's too high up. and even if you could reach it, it probably wouldn't burn

# i once had cinnamon lifesavers
why don't polos do branch out to non-mint or fruit flavours?

# You've never had fruit polos?
Or those spear, err, mint ones?

# the UK market
is considered too conservative to accept flavours like cinnamon and rum butter...

# Lifesavers come in a lot of different flavors
peppermint, spearmint, wintergreen etc. Maybe you had a mismatched mint.

# they'm different as different can be
polos aren't as strongly flavoured as lifesavers. or indeed any other mint in existence.

# not that i've done a nicecupoftea-style head-to-head comparison
perhaps i should...

# So they're kind of mildly
minty?

# yes
it's great when you're a wee child though, and ordinary mints are too strong
(I helped save b3ta! spacefish bong!, Tue 29 Apr 2003, 17:54, archived)
# that
is an uncannily accurate answer, except for the errant apostrophe.

# yes, but

# no lifesavers are used
to prevent drowning people sinking, Polos are just mints with a bit missing.
