Is it a candy or a mint?
I’m not sure, but I am sure of my new addiction to Anytime, a tri-layered mint-dy from lotte. They feel more like hard candy in size, and are incredibly sugary, yet my mouth feels minty fresh after crunching my way through the bag. Of the two flavores, lemon and mint, the mint is far superior thanks to a hint of vanilla.
700 won for a box at your local mini-mart.

You sure the secret ingredient is vanilla? Those mints are so good I’d always assumed it was crack.

It’s a party in your mouth! More than a mint, more than a candy, a mint-dy, copywrite that right there!

I had one of these the other day for the first time–it was like a party in my mouth!

Do you know where I can find these mints in the US? I absolutely love them and cannot find them anywhere!!!

Where can I get these??? My husband just brought home an Anytime mint from Korea, and I want to order a million! I’m in Los Angeles.

I first tried these vanilla mints when a korean friend brought it along during a road trip, I’ve since been addicted. The only place I know that sells it is in NH, and I live MA. I make the 1 hr drive to stock up on my anytime. I’m going have to be on the lookout for the lemon on. I’ve been wondering if the local korean market sells anytime.

I became addicted to Anytime about a year ago. A close friend of mine, who lives in Korea, is sending me some Korean food every now and then. And always, and to my delight, I open the package and there is one of this big bags of Anytime waiting to refresh me..
I’ve seen Anytime in two Korean markets some weeks ago (but I’m speaking of Dusseldorf, Germany), a good Korean market in the U.S. should have it in stock, too.

I fell in love with Anytime candies on a recent trip to Korea. I grew up there, but hadn’t been back in 33 years! We always called them “milk” flavored candies, but never had them with the cool mint center until now. I brought two bags back with me and am having to hide them from my son. I’m going to have to search out the Korean markets here in Austin to see if I can find them.

I think I had a reaction to these mints — my mouth felt like it got a shot of novacane — not sure the mints caused it though.

Found these on H-mart’s website on 12/01/2007

Anyone know where I can get the fruit flavored ones in the purple bag? (in the US)

I had a customer of mine come in and she gave me these mints and I will be honest I was afraid to try them, but when I did I’ve been hooked ever since I had a co-worker try them and she’s hooked I need to know where in the DC area can I get some? We are looking to purchase a couple boxes.

There is a Korean market in Los Angeles in Korea Town that sells these-It’s between 3rd and 4th St. on Western. You better hurry! They’re making a huge BUZZ around the office!!!

I bought some cherry/grape ones at the Farmer’s Market in Atlanta.

I bought some at the market inside the Koreatown Galleria in Los Angeles (Ktown). They got the mint and peach flavors.

I’m eating a container right now…
i looked up every ingredient
they are almost all harmless sweeteners
(may make you a little sick if you eat entire container’s worth in a day)
Any Korean store is bound to have a good stock of these. Just got mine from one in San Antonio. There should be plenty in Houston and Austin. In fact anywhere with a Korean store will have one.

Would anyone be able to help me trace a supplier of this in the UK, please? Thanks
