Junior Mints were actually not Kramer’s candy of choice
“Who’s gonna turn down a Junior Mint? It’s chocolate, it’s peppermint, it’s delicious!” Technically Kramer would’ve preferred M&Ms or even Lifesavers as his first option, however these companies didn’t really see the benefit in having their product fall inside a patient on an operating table. Junior Mints rolled the dice and experienced a huge surge in sales directly following the episode. Kudos to Junior Mint for their vision.
