This article needs a big cleanup.

This should be split into Mint and Mint (colour).

These problems might be so great that the article's factual accuracy has been compromised. Talk about it here or check the revision history or Manual of Style for more information.

Mint

Mint was both a plant and a shade of green. On Earth the plant was not tolerant to rapid changes in temperature and would die back during cold temperatures. (PROSE: Cat's Cradle: Warehead, The Banquo Legacy) When the Tenth Doctor and Donna Noble visited Earth in 1926, the Doctor said that the air smelled of grass and lemonade with a hint of mint. He said that the mint in the air meant that it was the 1920s. (TV: The Unicorn and the Wasp)

Mint as a food

Many sweets were mint flavoured such as humbugs and Tic-Tacs. (PROSE: Coldheart, Interference - Book One) Sweets made of chocolate with mint in the middle were also popular. These were often consumed with tea or coffee following a meal. (PROSE: Dragons' Wrath, Dry Pilgrimage)

Vithiliskan Savoury Fruit was served with mint sauce at the DMMC base canteen on Dreamstone Moon. (PROSE: Dreamstone Moon)

Mint's other uses

Mint was used to flavour many forms of toothpaste. (PROSE: Sky Pirates, Beige Planet Mars)

A breath mint was a type of candy primarily consumed to freshen the smell of one's breath. (TV: The Eclipse of the Korven)
