Many people I know in Japan aren’t fond of the taste of chocolate mint. I’ve heard people say it tastes like mouthwash or cold medicine. I think of York Peppermint Patties or Junior Mints, when I hear of chocolate mint (nostalgic, right?) Maybe, you like it or you don’t.
7-11 convenience stores recently came out with a new chocolate mint sandwich. I haven’t tried it, but I think it sounds good. Crushed chocolate chips and mint are mixed with whipped cream and thickly spread on chocolate bread. It sells for 198 yen, plus tax and was released on August 7th all around Japan except Hokkaido and Okinawa.
