The '''Mint Leaf''' ('''Sweet Potato''' in Japanese versions) is an item that appears in ''[[Kirby's Dream Land]]''. It lets [[Kirby]] use his [[Air Bullet]] attack in the air without falling afterwards, essentially allowing him to rapid-fire his enemies. This is a reference to real-life sweet potatoes often being the cause of hiccups, and real-life mint leaves giving better breath. While it appears in a few stages, it is most notably used during the battle against [[Kabula|Kaboola]] in [[Float Islands]].

In later games, it is replaced by the [[Starship]] (including ''[[Kirby Super Star Ultra]]''{{'}}s Kaboola battle, now retranslated as Kabula). However, in ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Kirby Fighters]] [[Sub-Game]], it returns as an offensive item with the same function. It now resembles a sweet potato in the Japanese version and a mint leaf in international versions.

==''Kirby: Triple Deluxe'' and ''Kirby Fighters Deluxe''==
In ''[[Kirby: Triple Deluxe]]''<nowiki>'</nowiki>s [[Kirby Fighters]] [[Sub-Game]] (and in ''[[Kirby Fighters Deluxe]]''), it returns as an offensive item with a similar function. However, instead of puffing manually, Kirby puffs out air automatically, pausing after every few puffs. When the ability ends, Kirby puffs out a giant puff of air.

*Despite being based on a real-life food item, the Mint Leaf does not restore any [[stamina]] when consumed. As such, it does not count as [[food]] in the ''Kirby'' series.
