Those who love the taste of Wrigley's Extra chewing gum will now also be able to enjoy the flavors of a favorite product with Extra's Chewy Mints.
Offered in both Peppermint and Polar Ice flavors, these breath-freshening Chewy Mints boast a thin, hard outer shell and a soft, chewy core. The new Chewy Mints were recently unveiled at this year's Sweets & Snacks Expo in portable containers that make the refreshing mints easy to tote around in a pocket or handbag for instant on-the-go refreshment.
