Werthers for the Cold
Halls are popular this time of year, but medically they're no different than any other hard candy. So I've been enjoying a selection of fruit candy and Werthers, which taste a lot better
From the comments
James Petrosky:The menthol can be soothing and bring you comfort if you like that sort of thing, but it doesn't actually treat any symptoms in any way. So if it brings you comfort, that's an excellent reason to pick one candy over another. I detest the sensation, so gimme that fruit.
