== Change in Berry Sours flavors == |
|||
The Ice Breakers Sours berry variety has changed flavors, at least among what I can find in stores, in around May 2010 in the midwestern United States. Whereas it previously had "Berry Splash * Strawberry * Raspberry Lemonade", it now has "mixed berry * strawberry [ ] cherry" with a corresponding change to the package graphics of fruit. The plastic of the lid is a more pinkish purple with the new variety. The UPC code remains the same: 0 349950 4. I have saved an older container and will be uploading photos of the two versions. Local stores seem to still be stocking the checkout lines with the new variety, but using the old cardboard display boxes labeled with the old flavor variety. |

Bitter Flavor Comment
- Also, there is a type of Ice Breaker mint named "Liquid Ice". They are small gel pellets that melt in your mouth. However, they have a somewhat bitter flavor.
There was a time when I agreed to this but I beleive they may have changed the flavors or recipe. Does anyone have any explaination for this? --JimRhodes 04:20, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
Ice Cubes
I've been looking for a sentence about the "cold" feeling of the Ice Cubes; at first I thought it was menthol that triggers cold-receptive sensors in the mouth, as I posted here
Each cube contains menthol that chemically triggers cold-sensitive receptors in the skin of the mouth; the gum does not actually become colder, nor does any loss in temperature occur.
-but it actually does not contain menthol in the ingredients. I next looked up one of the key ingredients, mannitol, that has a page about being an artificial sweetener in breath-freshening candies. The page included that it had a positive heat of solution that added a coolness. So what I've figured here is that mannitol actually makes the gum slightly colder - based on my personal experience, this is barely noticeable and I'm not sure if this is the main selling point behind the "instantly cold gum" line on the box.
In the mean time, I'll definitely keep the menthol comment suspended and hold back on posting something about mannitol until I know for sure. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.166.50.213 (talk) 00:36, 23 October 2007 (UTC)
