Why do i sneeze whenever i eat a mint?
There may be a lingering infection in your sinus cavities. Mints usually have one or more essencial oils as an ingrediant and this easily evaporates and thus enters your sinus cavities. If there is an infection of say a virus or even a parasite living in your sinus's then the frarance will irritate the pathogen causing it to react and this will inturn tickle the nerves in your nose causing the sneeze reation.
