Do you sneeze when you eat mint candies/tablets?

No- I don't sneeze eating spicy or mint candies. I sneeze when my surrounding is dusty, too much smoke (that is why I don't like going out and commuting) I sneeze with too much scent or with people who uses strong perfume. I also like minty candies, it's soothing :)

lol. How do you keep them in your mouth when you sneeze? It doesn't happen to me. But I do remember that I used to sneeze a lot whenever I'm using St. Ives Apricot Scrub. lol. As in the exact moment I'm washing my face.

Yes it happens to me, thought I was the only one who sneezed after eating peppermint sweets. Like you it only happens at the first few seconds. I call it a 'peppermint sneeze' and think its fun, although it may actually be caused by some kind of allergy.

Hi Secret, so far i don't have any problem if i eat mint candies. In fact, i feel cool and refreshed when i eat any mint candies. I loves to eat mint candies a lot.But, i have to control my intake of it because it is very sweet. I tried my best to protect my teeth.

I wanna say that you're allergic to it but since you ate it, I think you're not. Lol! That's something else though. I never encountered of anyone who sneezes when eating mints. As for your question, no. I really don't sneeze of anything when I eat mint candies. I love mint candies to boot! Even the mintiest ones. Lol!

So far it did not happen to me. But normally whenever I eat mints I would cough so hard. It's kinda odd coz it should meant to relieve the itchiness in my throat but it triggers the itchiness more. So whenever I have cough I try to avoid eating candies/mints.

It happens to me a lot. If I eat very strong minty candies, or even if I chew very minty bubble gum, I will sneeze. The strong mint just seems to tickle my pallet and makes me sneeze. I've done this for years and it's usually only if the mint is very strong, mild mint doesn't usually do it, spearmints and strong mints usually do. If I eat aero mint chocolate, or other milk mint, or even lamb with mint I don't sneeze, it's really just the very strong ones that maybe my nose is a bit too sensitive to, mind you I have a cleft pallet so the mint strangeness goes to my nose quicker.

Maybe it is your allergies. Not that you are allergic to the mint itself; but along with freshening your breath mint also opens sinus passages that may have previously been swollen or blocked. When the nasal passages open, this allows more allergens to get into your system, and then your sinuses make you sneeze to attempt to get them back out. I haven't had this happen to me though, but I guess it would also depend on the environment you are in and what allergens you are actually allergic to, given the case that I described.

That has never happened to me.....you might have a food allergy...when I eat mints it has a different effect on me....I have to use the bathroom shortly after.

This has never happened to me either. I do almost always sneeze after swallowing a vitamin C tablet however. Usually I sneeze twice in a row then.

Nope, nothing i eat makes me sneeze. hehe ^^ I like mint flavored stuff, only in things meant to be eaten.. haha Like u mentioned, i like the mint effect of freshening our breath, in turns makes us feel good too. There's also this cool feeling lingering in the mouth, and it actually cools me down a little during the hot weather. hehe WHenever i'm buying sweets, i will be looking for mint flavored ones ^^

No...I don't sneeze when I eat them. It reminds me though if a clunk my shin or elbow...it makes me cough. I have asked a few people if it happens to them and I have never saw anyone that says it does. Isn't it funny how different people react to things?

That doesn't happen to me. That sounds so weird. Maybe you have an allergy to mint, or another common ingredient in most mint-flavored candy. This kind of makes me think of how some people sneeze when they are exposed to bright light.
