Junior Mints are the signature creamy mints dipped in pure chocolate. These mini peppermint patties were created in 1949 by the James O. Welch Company. The candy’s famous name came from a Broadway play and movie adaptation titled “Junior Miss." Welch was so entranced by this title that he named these creamy mints dipped in pure chocolate after this play. As a marketing tactic, Welch sold Junior Mints at movie concession stands while Junior Miss was in theaters. To this day, Junior Mints exists as one of the leading movie concession candies!
This candy now created by the Tootsie Roll Industries is a popular topic in many television shows including Eddie Murphy Raw, Two and a Half Men, Family Guy, and Seinfeld. In fact, no one describes the taste of Junior Mints quite as well as Kramer from an episode of Seinfeld?
“Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint, it’s delicious!"
