No, but menthol kinda does, enough for a meme anyway.

I thought it was amusing, and I say that as a big fan of Thin Mints and a mild appreciator of Junior Mints or York Peppermint Patties.

Eucaliptus is mint++

mint haters are weak and will not survive the winter

[–] Dud 2 points 11 months ago

Jokes on you where I leave we don't actually have a winter.

hawaiin pizza? perfect

chicken and waffles? perfect

mint and chocolate? also perfect.

Fight me IRL.

[–] [email protected] 22 points 11 months ago

Fight you? For harnessing the courage necessary to throw aside the taboos of society and finally speak the culinary truth?

I'll meet you on the battlefield, sure, but not as your enemy.

[–] Dabundis 13 points 11 months ago

Pizza is an extraordinarily rich, fat-forward food. Things that are too fatty or greasy are often balanced by adding something acidic. I may not enjoy the taste myself, but pineapple does fit that role.

Where do you live?

[–] thirteene 3 points 11 months ago

As a person of exceptional taste, do you think mint and cranberry would go well together? It came to me in a dream, but I am too afraid to try it for myself.

[–] wjrii -1 points 11 months ago

No, though if you're ready for it, it's not that bad.

Yes, yes, a thousand times yes.

Depends on the ratio.

I love mint chocolate chip ice cream, but I’ll admit that sometimes you get some low quality stuff that literally tastes like cold toothpaste.

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago (1 children)

Don’t knock my freezercrest!

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

How do you squeeze it out of the tube once it's frozen?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 months ago

If you are Canadian Kawartha Dairy has very good mint chocolate chip that is reasonably priced. It isn't quite the best I've ever had but at not much more than the price of the cheap stuff at the grocery store it is perfect to have in the freezer for an "every-day" treat.

Ironically enough, Vaseline is technically edible. The inventor of the shit would spread it on toast and claim it had healing abilities.

[–] garbagebagel 9 points 11 months ago

And mexican mothers still agree to this day

(about the healing properties not the eating it part)

[–] [email protected] 2 points 11 months ago

I mean, neosporin is mostly vaseline

[–] agent_flounder 13 points 11 months ago

Don't like it? More for me!

[–] [email protected] 12 points 11 months ago (1 children)

That's a totally different flavour. It makes me wonder if there is a genetic reason like with the people that think cilantro tastes like soap.

More taste buds = more diverse taste and thus soap because Cilantro leaves share a chemical found in soap. It's also a genetic trait.

I don't quite understand this meme. Do these people hate mint altogether or just with chocolate?

I mean, if you leave the chocolate out of it, anyone who likes any kind of mint anything should (according to this logic) be eating VapoRub straight out the jar.

[–] LifeOfChance 5 points 11 months ago (1 children)

It's the ice cream part. Mint when cold is very intense so if someone doesn't like mint they'll absolutely hate mint ice cream.

[–] Mr_Fish 2 points 11 months ago

If anyone thinks mint ice cream tastes any colder than other ice cream, they've never tried mint ice cream

I don't get it, why are you dipping a cookie in Vaseline

[–] [email protected] 13 points 11 months ago
[–] FlyingSquid 2 points 11 months ago

Why aren't you dipping a cookie in Vaseline?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 11 months ago

Hey man I'll eat a tube of toothpaste mixed with sugar and chocolate chips in a bowl any day, dairy free too

One is refreshing for the nose, the other is refreshing for the mouth.

[–] Blum0108 6 points 11 months ago

But we won't tell you which one is which!
