I don't know, somehow it seems worse. I think it's because bacon is just bacon, and while the thought of a bacon mint isn't exactly appealing, at least it's a pretty straight forward flavor - cured smoked pig. The fact that a mint that's corndog flavored means that they've somehow synthesized the separate flavors of hot dog and fried corn bread batter down into a single flavor is conceptually more stomach-churning. Perhaps because it brings to mind an image of someone blending a corndog into a homogeneous smoothie.
