Talk:Tic Tac

There are 37 tic tacs per box.

Name of Article: Candy?

Shouldn't it be under Tic Tac (mint)? 65.197.192.130 21:25, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

No because Mint is just one of its many flavours.Mark E 13:28, 10 July 2007 (UTC)

Tic Tacs vs. iPod Nano image

I strongly suspect that the image was created to show the relative size of the iPod nano, not the size of a box of Tic Tacs. The size of a box of tic tacs really shouldn't merit a comparison image at all, but if it really is important to some people then can we find another picture with something more appropriate? The iPod Nano isn't exactly a known standard. Perhaps a quarter or penny instead? Or (even better) mention the height of the box in the introduction (e.g. Tic Tacs come in a clear plastic box about five centimeters tall...). Anyone disagree?

It has been over 1 month with no disagreements (or otherwise any comments at all). I have gone ahead with the removal of the offending image. Once again, the image added very little to the article and if anyone really wants the size of a box of Tic Tacs, they should consider one of my suggestions above.

Under wrong name?

This article should really be under 'tic tac' since that is the name of the product. However, this will clash with 'tic-tac', the betting signalling system. Davidbod 00:28, August 29, 2005 (UTC)

I know no one who calls them "Tic Tac", it's always the plural, even in adverts they refer to them as Tic Tacs. It's the most common name and I personally think it should stay as such on the Wiki. - Ferret 16:15, 4 September 2005 (UTC)

You are correct that "Tic Tacs" is the correct name for the product and for the article. We would not name the article on Certs as "Cert", would we? Herostratus 05:11, 9 November 2005 (UTC)

I completely disagree. Perhaps it is a US vs. UK thing, because it's very common to "have a Tic Tac" on this side of the pond. We would still say, "Pass the tic tacs" when referring to the container full of candy. But the package is clearly labelled "tic tac", while Certs is labelled with an "s". Also, "tic tac" beats "tic tacs" in a Google Fight, hands down. Finally, the bloody website is tictacusa Hoof Hearted 19:26, 23 August 2006 (UTC)

After loking at the main page and checking my own boxes I agree the name of the main page should be under correct title of the actual product and not the colloquial title of the product.(Halbared 09:51, 24 August 2006 (UTC))I l

30% bigger

the 30% bigger Tic Tacs are listed as an innovation and it is implied that they are a different variety of Tic Tac. Maybe it wasn't an international change, but in the US ALL Tic Tacs are 30% larger than the originals.

tic tac capitalization

• I have noticed that everywhere on the official website and on the box itself, the capitalization is strictly 'tic tac'. I propose a capitalization change. LtDonny 06:57, 24 December 2006 (UTC)
  • The website and the box are clearly all in lower case, so I'd agree that the page should be moved to 'tic tac'. However, isn't there a technical issue with Wikipedia pages that don't begin with a capital letter? Incidentally, I've changed back the idiot who replaced the 'tic tic's with capitals everywhere. 82.43.137.103 17:39, 16 February 2007 (UTC)

No More Lime!?

I can nolonger find just lime tic tacs in the store these days. It is now always lemon and lime, which I don't like. I went to there website and was shocked to find they dont advertize lime by its self. Have they done away with just lime? I think it really sucks if they did!

Eucalyptus flavour in Slovakia (Europe)

There is Eucalyptus flavour ("winter edition") advertised here in Slovakia, however I have yet to see it in the shops.
