Where have all the Ginger Altoids gone?

In the past, I've mentioned my deep love for Ginger Altoids. Trust me, they're wonderful -- spicy ginger, a fresh flavor, long-lasting invigoration for your mouth after popping a handful of the tiny lozenges. Unfortunately, I can't find them anywhere. The usual locations seem to be mysterious devoid of these unusual treats. Target doesn't have them, Whole Foods doesn't have them and even the Altoids website is completely out of stock.

It's been my experience that when a product suddenly disappears from the shelves, it's on the fast track towards being discontinued. I've contacted the folks at Altoids and so far I've heard nothing. Obviously, no news is probably bad news. But if you happen to find yourself at the grocery store over the next few days and you see my beloved Ginger Altoids, please leave a comment to let me know they still exist.

Holding the clear bottle, you can see chopped up pieces of real ginger settled at the bottom. Bruce Cost calls this his main selling point.

This happens to me allll the time, I swear, it's like I'm cursed or something. Everytime I find a product I like, they discontinue it. The most recent is Clinique's Skin Calming Moisture Mask. I don't know how long it's been discontinued but I got a sample of it from my mother-in-law and I fell in love with it and BAM it's gone. What the hell?!?
