That's because mint is a powerful and aromatic herb that aids in digestion and freshens the breath. Combining mint with chocolate happened around the 19th century when chocolate alone was being manufactured as confectionary and for ice cream. In the 1940's, the creation of the York Peppermint Patty was announced, and this popular development made these two flavours combined, an absolute hit. Then in 1949 Junior Mints were introduced and...Andes Crème de Menthe Thins were introduced in 1950 by a Chicago candy maker...in 1953 Girl scouts begin selling Thin Mint cookies after their rise in popularity. So enjoy something minty today.
