gum

[ohnoaninfp]

What is your favorite kind of gum? Ilove Big Red it is really good, but it loses its flavor though.

[Sam172]

The non-existant kind :D

I find it starts to taste like plastic after a while, and as it costs money I don't get it.
Also I find it disgusting how it's caked all over the streets in the town here, so I try and actively discourage other people from chewing it by not using any myself.

Same goes for spitting in public really....

[cloakable]

Hmm... I like Airwaves, but I prefer a good strong mint, like XXXX

Big Red here too, and the gum that's inside of a Charms Blow-Pop.

[BritainOphira]

I like the random light blue packages of orbitz. I really don't know what flavor it is supposed to be, but is great.

When I was in high school there was a perpetual pack of Big Red in my pocket. I don't chew gum much anymore.

[Google Monster]

chew it like once a year. usually a different flavor.

Mine used to be Cherry something...forgot the name, it tasted like medicine, but for some reason I liked it.
Now it's Eclipse, Polar Ice.

I am not supposed to chew it though...cause my jaw is screwed up...but oh well.

Wrigleys Doublemint, but I use it rarely, when I go on flights or need something in my purse, thats what I usually prefer.

Found these, the second one tells you what gum is made of:

I love gum, but I only chew the sugarfree minty kinds. My current favorite is obrit (stupid commercials, but I've found the flavor lasts a long time), followed by trident and dentine ice. I can't stand the kinds that loose their flavor and feel like chewing plastic after being in the mouth for one minute.

because I like all those ridiculous studies being done out there: (http://www.newscientist.com/news/news.jsp?id=ns99992039)

Chewing gum can improve memory, say UK psychologists. They found that people who chewed throughout tests of both long-term and short-term memory produced significantly better scores than people who did not. But gum-chewing did not boost memory-linked reaction times, used as a measure of attention.

I do not chew gum anymore.. for a very specific reason.. I would chew gum constantly.. at least 10 (probably way more) sticks a day.. then I noticed I was farting much more frequently then normal.. and someone casually mentioned to me once that there is a chemical or something in gum that makes you fart.. so.. I decided to stop chewing gum since that day on and my ass feels better for it.

What's wrong with farting? If it comes from gum, it should be minty fresh... ok, enough stupid.
I'm not really a gum person either. If someone offers, I'll take it, but otherwise, no. Juicy Fruit is a good flavor... if only they weren't such money-grubbing bastards they'd have invented a way to make the flavor last more than two minutes... Grr.

Dentyne Ice Artic Chill (sugar free)

has more to do with your tastebuds.. if you take out the gum for a bit then put the gum back in the flavor mysteriously returns.

[jimkopelli]

Sometimes I'll get a drink at the water fountain, and cool the gum down... it toughens it back up... but there's till no flavor left...

Hee! I like the Orbit commercials, they're funny. And yeah, the flavor lasts a long time. I like the peppermint kind.

Oh, and don't believe anyone who says if you swallow gum it stays in your stomach for 7 years or whatever. It doesn't. It passes through your system. I'm not giving any more detail than that...

[EternalCynic]

I used to chew gum ALL the time, but not so much anymore. Any mint flavor for anything, including gum, wintergreen :D

[Vagabond]

Um... huh..? :huh:

I der ner, you might want to review Pamela Anderson's colonic-cleansing experiences before you say that.

[Mnemosyne]

Why, what happened to her? I'm not a part of Pamela Anderson's fan club, so I wouldn't know. :)

[ohnoaninfp]

I dont like the eclipse cherry or lemon ice they are nasty. eww.

[Avengardh]

Clover Cherry?

Hmm...no...I don't think it began with "Cherry"...I actually found it!

Aww :[

I can't find it anywhere in CO, tried...but failed, they had it at H.E.B Pantry Foods in Houston, and I kinda miss it...it was weirdly tasty.
