Counts group repeated records of the same source within each side. They do not measure evidence strength or source independence.

Is it true that biting wintergreen Life Savers candy produces flashes of light through triboluminescence?

Yes. A reference entry states that triboluminescence is especially noticeable when crushing Wint-O-Green Life Savers in the dark, and a candy-science book confirms triboluminescent sparks in Wint-O-Green LifeSavers tied to the wintergreen flavoring. Together they support that biting wintergreen Life Savers produces light flashes.
