White tic tacs are white and orange tic tacs are orange

no they are actually white, but the plastic casing is Orange.
I guess it was either cost cutting, or the colouring was found to be 'harmful'

I saw green and orange ones (in the same packet) in ASDA this week.

In the US you can get Wintergreen flavour, which is like Germoline.

it could be worse... you could buy your first pack of starburst for quite a lot of months and realise they've stopped with the yellow ones! I nearly died... no yellow star burst!? god damn!

I think you need to carry out a scientific experiment here by putting an orange tic tac in your mouth then every 5 secs stick it out on you tongue, look in the mirror and continue this (timing it) until it has gone completely white. We will need to have a panel of tic tac suckers just in case you are an unusually quick sucker compared to other tic tac eaters.

Also will need to test out the lime green ones .

And might be worth seeing how long it takes a foamy banana to dissolve on your tongue.

Well get this for weird - the pink Tic Tacs that they have in the states [pink for Breast Cancer] are in fact Mint flavour - you'd think they'd have strawberry ones to go with the colour...

Like the look of the Berry and Cherry ones they did in the 70s

Wonder what the Tic Tac Silvers are like ?
