"Only a small Pfefferminzpastillchen?" "No, not so close to the first. Since my account is empty" Recently I bought me some sweets to the kilogram price of as much as 150 euros. No, the luxury delicacy, it is not precious chocolates, filled with 100 year old brandy. There were ordinary fully synthetic peppermint candies from her kitchen food industry, which turned out to be my most expensive Luxuspastillen. The triangular Zungenschmeichler with the beautiful name Smint (R) are happy to hand at cash registers, the does-not-hurt-price of 1.20 €. For this you get a nifty green jar with 40 sugar-coated tablets, which add up to a total of eight grams - 0.2 grams each to three Euro cents. It
is indeed also scolded the pharmaceutical industry and its expensive Pillchen. But at least this stuff helps with all sorts of aches and ailments. Since the relative few Euros for a prescription pain reliever. The Smint however left the mouth just a bit sweet peppermint flavor ("Fresh & Dental Care" on the label - I did not know that sucking provides dental care). 150 euro: these are a few bottles of good cognac, grappa, whiskey or a case very decent wine. Or just three monthly tickets for public transport.
Very well, no one piece of peppermint mümmelt 1000 grams but 100 grams is quite realistic. That would be followed by 12.5 Smint jars to the consumer price 15 €. Therefore we have: artificial flavoring (cheap!), hydrogenated cottonseed oil (cheap!), maltodextrin bit (cheap!) and artificial sweetener. Similar profit margins are likely to only be with printer ink and precious mascara in it. Who again is so twelve times the handle to the green jar, can instead be a loved one and two beautiful rump steak fry.
