Frequently Asked Questions
Are these mints safe for a child with a peanut or tree nut allergy?
Yes. PUR Mints are certified nut-free and peanut-free, manufactured in a facility that prevents cross-contamination, making them safe for nut-allergic children at school or playdates.
My son has celiac disease — are these mints gluten free?
Yes. PUR Mints are certified gluten-free, with no wheat, barley, or rye ingredients, so they are safe for kids with celiac disease or gluten sensitivity.
Is the packaging child resistant or easy for a 6 year old to open?
The flip-top tin is designed for easy adult and teen access. For very young children, we recommend storing the tin out of reach, as with any small candy item.
Can my teenage daughter use these mints if her dentist recommended xylitol for cavity prevention?
Yes. PUR Mints are xylitol-based and dentist-recommended for cavity prevention, making them a fitting choice for teens, including 16 year olds who dislike traditional mint or cinnamon flavors.
Are PUR Mints safe for kids with soy allergies?
Yes. PUR Mints are certified soy-free, with no soy lecithin or soy-derived ingredients, so they are safe for children with soy allergies.
Can I safely send these to school in a lunchbox for a nut allergy classroom?
Yes. The nut-free, peanut-free, gluten-free, and soy-free certifications make PUR Mints appropriate for shared classroom snacks and nut-free school environments.
Will my child like the taste if she hates mint and cinnamon?
Yes. Tangerine Tango is specifically designed for kids and adults who dislike mint and cinnamon, offering a bright citrus alternative that is often the favorite flavor among younger users.
Are the mints individually wrapped so I can portion them for school lunches?
PUR Mints come in a resealable flip-top tin, which many parents prefer for freshness. If you prefer individual wraps, the 30-count tin is compact enough to pack a daily portion.
How does this compare to typical kids' candy for allergy households?
Unlike most mainstream kids' candy, PUR Mints are stacked allergen-free, vegan, non-GMO, and contain no aspartame or artificial dyes, making them one of the few candies safe for multiple dietary restrictions.
Is the white color from artificial bleaching or natural?
The white color comes from the natural formulation, with no added dyes or artificial colors, which is reassuring for parents who want to avoid synthetic additives in kids' snacks.
Can these mints replace Jolly Ranchers for a teen trying to quit sugar candy?
Yes. PUR Mints offer a satisfying chew and bold flavor like Tangerine Tango, but with zero sugar and no aspartame, making them a smart transitional candy for teens kicking a sugar habit.
Do PUR Mints contain any common choking hazards for young kids?
PUR Mints are small hard mints. As with any hard candy, they are recommended for children who can safely chew hard foods, typically age 5 and up depending on the child.
Are these mints safe for a vegan family?
Yes. PUR Mints are certified vegan and contain no animal-derived ingredients, so they fit into vegan family households and shared snack drawers.
How long will a tin last in my child's lunchbox through the week?
A 30-count tin typically lasts 1 to 2 weeks for a single child depending on daily use, and the resealable flip-top keeps the remaining mints fresh between lunchbox packings.
My child is on a keto diet for medical reasons — are these mints allowed?
Yes. PUR Mints are keto friendly with zero sugar, only 2g of sugar alcohol per 2 mints, and no aspartame, fitting within standard keto macros for a child as approved by their healthcare provider.
Is there any reason these mints would not be safe in a household with multiple food allergies?
PUR Mints are free from the top 9 most common allergens including nuts, peanuts, soy, gluten, and dairy, making them one of the safest shared candy options for multi-allergen households.
How do I open the flip top tin without spilling mints everywhere?
Hold the tin upright with the lid facing up, press your thumb under the front lip of the flip top, and lift gently. The hinge keeps the lid attached so mints stay contained. To close, press down firmly until you hear a soft click.
How should I store the mints to maximize the 2 year shelf life?
Store the tin in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight, such as a pantry, desk drawer, or bedside table. The resealable lid protects against moisture and humidity, so there is no need to refrigerate.
Can I transfer mints from the 65 count jar into a smaller travel tin?
Yes. Many customers buy the 65 count jar to refill the 30 count travel tin, which reduces packaging waste and keeps a portable supply ready for bags and pockets.
Are these mints compatible with a keto or diabetic diet plan?
Yes. PUR Mints contain zero sugar and only 2g of sugar alcohol per 2 mints, making them compatible with most keto and diabetic dietary frameworks. As always, consult your healthcare provider for personalized advice.
Will these mints interact with any medications or health conditions?
PUR Mints are generally well tolerated. Xylitol is not absorbed into the bloodstream like sugar, but if you have a specific medical condition or take medications, consult your physician before making them a daily habit.
What is included when I order a single tin?
Each order includes the selected number of resealable flip top tins filled with the flavor and count of your choice, ready to use immediately. No additional accessories or setup are required.
Are PUR Mints safe for people with multiple food allergies?
Yes. PUR Mints are certified free from nuts, peanuts, soy, gluten, and dairy, making them one of the safest mints for households and individuals managing multiple food allergies.
Do the mints contain any common allergens like dairy or eggs?
No. PUR Mints are vegan and contain no dairy, eggs, nuts, peanuts, soy, or gluten, making them suitable for vegan and allergen sensitive users.
What is the difference between PUR Mints and traditional mints like Altoids or Tic Tacs?
Unlike Altoids, PUR Mints have no artificial aftertaste. Unlike Tic Tacs, they are sugar free, aspartame free, vegan, and allergen free, with a balanced sweetness from xylitol rather than sugar or artificial sweeteners.
