12 hours now Man, those Trebor mints are good Did you know that Trebor is Robert backwards btw? The company was named after... I can't remember for sure if it was the owner's name or his son's. Are Trebor-Sharps still around, or have they been swallowed up by some big ole confectionary conglomerate? Anyone know? Anyone care? Anyone for a Sharps Extra Strong Mint?

It's sad, but I happen to know, Gosho.
Trebor have been merged with Bassetts for some years, but just recently have become a subsidiary of a very well known confectionary giant. The new firm is called Cadbury Trebor Bassett, and also includes the Bournville company's other non-chocolate sweet brands, e.g. Cadbury's Eclairs, Pascall Fruits etc.
Well, you did ask....

I remember that disgusting playground ditty Gosho, and the advert Those xtra strong mints are pathitic now btw, Sharps, used to *burn* it was like sucking a battery! If you crunhhed 'em up and tried to swallow it quickly you'd have gut ache all day! Only the English could invent a sweet that was so manifestly revolting, and clearly designed as some kind of oral punishment for naughty kids!

Thanks Gosho. What with mints and your bum, I'll probably never be able to clean my teeth properly ever again
