Do you have any idea how little that narrows it down?
But seriously, mint in things like ice cream does not taste like toothpaste, but know what does? Root beer. Not crappy root beer though, microbrew or some of the more expensive brands.
You basically have the problem non americans have with hersheys chocolate. Your head associates mint with toothpaste like how typically europeans attribute butyric acid(found in american hersheys chocolate) to vomit.
If one had say, had mint bubble gum, drinks, raw mint(south east asian cuisine) or ice cream before getting used to toothpaste, you likely wouldn’t attribute mint to it.
Non American here, I do like Hershey’s chocolate and didn’t think of it as vomit. It’s just different.
I got used to toothpaste that didn’t taste like mint, as a child. Strawberry/cherry/bubble gum flavoured toothpaste was great. As an adult though, you get less variety so it’s some sort of mint. But I agree on this one, I don’t attribute mint as the toothpaste flavour.
This is the only reasonable thing anyone has replied with and I would absolutely believe it. Mint tastes like purposely eating cold acid to me. I cannot wrap my head around how anyone enjoys the flavor I’ve experienced.
Literally every one of those items isn’t just something I dislike, but I’m repulsed by. I’ve had numerous arguments over Andes and I’ve been the only one to get nothing when candy canes were given out too many times to count. It’s not dull to me on account of the billion other good foods that exist, but yeah, mint tastes like cold acid in my mouth and no part about it is good or enjoyable.
