commonsense – We also used to eat CS from B”B, but a few years ago my husband heard that the quality had gone down and we stopped using it. It is hard because some of the major brands here switch from Badatz Eida HaChardeidis to CS B”B for Pesach, so we have to do without those products during Pesach. Oh well, it’s just a week. I have a friend who does not eat tomatoes since they cannot be peeled (or at least it takes more effort than she wants to invest) so they do without for the week of Pesach and that is her attitude – it’s just a week. Mentos during the year may be a different story for some people. I happen to have a package that my son received as a present – they are made in Holland and have a hechsher from Rabbanut of Holland. Some people, though, do research individual products and find out if they are okay. Maybe Mentos is something like that.
