Chocolate AltoidsI believe I’ve mentioned my affinity for mints in the Metromint story, so it should come as no surprise that I’d mention this. Make Magazine’s blog reports that Altoids are releasing a new set of ginger, cinnamon, and (of course) peppermint flavored candies, but this time dipped in dark chocolate. Curiously Strong Chocolates.

Unfortunately, they won’t be available for a few months, unless you win an eBay auction to benefit the American Red Cross. Were it not for the charitable component, I think that even Dark Chocolate Covered Altoids would not be worth the (as of posting) $172.51 highest bid, even for the three tins. Still, if you enjoy helping people, chocolate, peppermint, and the knowledge that you would be one of the few people in the world who knows the tastiness of this treat, then it’s likely worthwhile to start bidding.
