Max’s Organic Mints (from The Netherlands)

Chewing gum litter is one of England’s biggest street litter problems. But if you want fresh breath, a far better idea is simply to carry a tin of organic mints around, just like your grandpa did!

Unfortunately, most stores in England no longer stock them, instead preferring to sell plastic packs of mints. So stock up from The Netherlands with packs of Max’s Organic Mints, sold in sweet little tins (or compostable bags).

Organic mints also don’t give you jaw ache, and are free from pet-toxic sweetener xylitol (in most gums, and lethal to wildlife and dogs, if littered on streets.

Another good brand to inspire mint-makers is Vermints (US), again organic and sold in tins. Why with all England’s litter problems, are no makers here offering something similar?
