Yes it is merely a sensation.Menthol has a property to stimulate the cold sensitive receptors in skin and mucus membranes producing feeling of coolness.This is just like the opposit that happen with pepper which stimulate heat receptors producing feeling of warmth without actually causing heat change...
Why should it? It's not cold. It's rather more miraculous that mint causes the sensation of coolness than that it doesn't actually physically cool things.
I'm not entirely certain what you mean by adding the word "hypothesis", but mint only "cools things down" if it's colder than they are (for example, if you were keeping it in the freezer or something). It does produce the sensation of coolness on the tongue for interesting chemical reasons, but it doesn't actually change the temperature.
Yes it is! its very cool and has new things to enjoy ever time,i love it when they turn to mermaids.
No need to cool dry ice.
