Completely.", ">\n\nMint chocolate chip ice cream is the worst ice cream flavor ever", ">\n\nYou guys do know that mint came LONG before toothpaste, right?\nThis is a matter of personal taste, so nobody's really \"wrong\" but i think this is a modern problem that is only because people eat mint flavoring so much more often than actual mint leaves. Has nobody ever had a mojito with fresh mint? Shit's fire", ">\n\nI love fresh mint in almost any context--Indian food, teas, etc--and the mint julep is one of my favorite cocktails, but I cannot stand mojitos. The combination of citrus and mint absolutely makes me gag. In that context I can sympathize with OP, it just reminds me of drinking orange juice after brushing my teeth.", ">\n\nThat's a toothpaste problem, not a mint problem!\nYou see, citrus being gross after brushing isn't caused by the mint, it's caused by a chemical (surfactant maybe?) Which has that effect on your taste buds. We all associate the effect with mint because of toothpaste flavors, but it's not really the mint.\nYou're not wrong to be grossed out by the association with brushing and citrus, but i still think it's a shame that mint gets the blame for it", ">\n\nI mean, I got the same sensation the few times I tried mojitos, with fresh mint and real citrus. It's just a flavor that disgusts me.", ">\n\nOk, fair", ">\n\nNah mint margirits is love", ">\n\nMint is a great palette cleanser. Also goes great with chocolate, at least now that I'm older it does. It's a strong flavor when you're young, as you get older and your taste buds deplete though, damn is that shit good.", ">\n\nI hate it so much it's unreal", ">\n\nYou're a psycho. Mint chocolate chip ice cream is second only to vanilla \nUpvoted", ">\n\nAmerican child outs themselves", ">\n\nIf you think that mint chocolate icecream tastes anything like toothpaste then you don’t brush your teeth.", ">\n\nWhat about before toothpaste was invented?", ">\n\nSo this is just gonna be a 'you' thing, really. Your brain has made a sort of harder wired connection between 'mint flavor' and 'toothpaste'. It's not even really an opinion, it's just something that's happening with you. \nI'm not going to disagree with you, cuz I cant deny what you are tasting and your actual experience. I'm sure that's very real for you.", ">\n\nI briefly dipped wintergreen tobacco like a decade ago. It’s ruined anything wintergreen flavor for me.", ">\n\nMmmm fake mint yes. Real mint no, mojitos taste nothing like the menthol mints you get at the counter.\nThe fake mint taste your saying I'm positive is menthol, the herb mint is used in fine dining all the time and it's delicious.\nBut I have to agree, mint ice cream tastes just like some mint essential oil is sprayed into it.", ">\n\nThis shouldn’t be that unpopular at all. As far as I can remember, it was my reaction to tasting something with mint for the first time.", ">\n\nIsn't it crazy how the addition of sugar to something makes it gradually taste more like cheap candy?", ">\n\nMint chocolate chip icecream is one of those foods that you love or hate. Like pineapple on a pizza or black licorice.", ">\n\nI know, right?!?! Nobody I know likes mint flavoured stuff, why do they even make it?!", ">\n\nThinmint cookies are food related and those are absolutely yummy.", ">\n\nMint gives me headaches", ">\n\nEh, that's fine. That just means more for me 😋 I will say I don't really prefer too much mint in the things I enjoy - it does have to be balanced. Sometimes it can be overdone, and then I can understand how it turns people off." ]
