I put cinnamon hearts in my purse, to have during the day in place of a mint [I wanted to try something different]. From eating them, I got a terrible taste in my mouth, and when I looked at my tongue it was red from the dye. Well, out of curiousity I scraped my tongue with my nail, and this.. like residue came off, red because of the dye I guess and it smelled horrible. I'm definitely not going to eat them anymore, but why do you think this was happening?

because its warn away, Cut down on the sweet/candy. Also if you want better breath try chewing gum or the strips you put on your tongue and they disolve there small and you can fit them in your purse.
