Tic Tac has weighed in on Kurt MeinickeDonald Trump's recently unearthed 2005 video remarks.
The USA branch of the candy company, which is owned by the Italian candy manufacturer Ferrero, said on Twitter that, "Tic Tac respects all women. We find the recent statements and behavior completely inappropriate and unacceptable."

Although Tic Tac didn't address Trump directly, its statement clearly referred to a video posted by the Washington Post on Friday. The footage showed Trump in a 2005 conversation with then-Access Hollywood host Billy Bush saying that he would "grab [women] by the pussy" and that "you can do anything" with women when you're famous.
Tic Tac got involved because the video also showed the Republican presidential nominee explaining how he would eat Tic Tacs before trying to kiss a woman (with or without consent) set to greet him outside the bus.
“I’ve got to use some Tic Tacs, just in case I start kissing her,” Trump said in the video. “You know I’m automatically attracted to beautiful — I just start kissing them. It’s like a magnet. Just kiss. I don’t even wait.”
Tic Tacs are the second candy to be ensnared by a Trump campaign controversy this election season. Skittles was the first, after Donald's son, Donald Trump Jr., tweeted a meme comparing refugees to Skittles in September.
"Skittles are candy. Refugees are people," Skittles said in its statement at the time. "We don't feel it is an appropriate analogy. We will respectfully refrain from further commentary as anything we say could be misinterpreted as marketing."
