Do You Chew Gum?

fuck gum

All the time

I HATE gum.

ORBIT or gtfo

im loyal to no one brand. i cant be boxed in like that. tho if ur gum loses its flavor in > 30 mins, its a deal breaker. i notice this is more likely 2 happen w/ fruit gums, even for brands that have mint gums w/ long lasting flavor. that is p interesting right

STRIDE, 5 ALIVE or whatever that is, all total shit

EXTRA is alright but you really do need two peices

I take feb 29th off.

I do not chew gum myself. I am indifferent to gum in the mouths of other people. But when I encounter gum outside of mouths, globbed onto the sidewalk or the street, or upon any of the many and varied surfaces one meets in the material world, I HATE GUM!

can't remember the last time i had some

i'm with dayo though, minus the orbitz stuff, which i don't think i've ever had

(i don't do candy/sweets in general)

man, the subway platforms in nyc

i do not chew gum and find it unattractive in others (and kinda repulsive if it involves opening one's mouth), but ffs what's up with just dumping spent gum where people must trod

i might just be scarred by my inability to blow bubbles as a child, tho

During the work day. I think it helps keep me focused, my fidget energy goes into that. Plus keeps me from constant snacking. But I get rid of it if I go into a meeting -- I don't want to be the gum-chewing guy at the conference table.

Wrigley's Spearmint or Double-Mint only. Nothing sugarless, don't like artificial sweeteners. I usually have 1-3 of these in my desk:

How many cavities do you have

supermarkets don't seem to carry much bubblegum qua bubblegum any more.
it's all "health" gum
RIP bubble yum.

i've been trying to chew trident p regularly for dental health reasons

love the cinnamon flavor

made the mistake of buying a 5 pack of the tropical flavor bcz I briefly thought I enjoyed it
no sirree bob I do not

nb trying = mostly forgetting, remembering to chew maybe once a week if that :/

chewing trident is good for your teeth?

gum containing xylitol is good for dental health according to my dental hygenist

i chose trident randomly out if the xylitol gums avail

you just totally made up the word xylitol, didn't you

whatever haters

it's the kind of thing of which people say, 'apparently it was invented by that guy from the monkee's mom.'

* monkees'

White out! For typewriters! Get your Monkees lore straight.

i have it straight but i think the person who recently told me and several others that george harrison's mother had invented blu tack did not.

3 sticks of Trident bubblegum thrice daily.

yes i do

gum i chew

I used to chew hella gum, but haven't had a stick in years. Must have a candy shell, like chiclets. Don't know how much crossover there is between that and the xylitol market. Trident sticks are the worst. Nothing like trying to extricate a warm, mushy stick of Trident from its paper wrapper.

Trident spearmint, one stick in the morning, chewed prophylactically because sometimes my stomach doesn't play nice with my meds.

I'm not THAT intolerant but...I never chew it at work or in relatively formal social situations. I know how snooty people can be about it. I feel pangs of pity when I see a receptionist or some other public service type doing it.

That said, I think it's FINE for outdoor or physical activity or manual labor jobs (deliveries, home improvement, construction).

at school they told us chewing gum gives you ulcers and that scared me off, also I could never blow bubbles

I chew gum sometimes but only as a breath freshener when I can't brush my teeth. My tolerance for having it in my mouth tops out at about ten minutes then it has to go. I also grind my teeth/clench my jaw when I'm stressed so I try to avoid gum because that just exacerbates whatever jaw pain/headache I've managed to clench myself into.

Other people chewing gum doesn't bother me as long as they KEEP THEIR MOUTH CLOSED AND DON'T MAKE DISGUSTING GUM NOISES. Fuck.

I miss these adverts

When I was quitting smoking, I drove from Atlanta to Greensboro, NC to visit Jeff and since I loooooved smoking while driving, I decided to chew gum the whole way so I wouldn't backslide - sugarless peppermint Hubba Bubba (I don't think they make it anymore but it was wonderful gum). Anyway at the end of the six hour drive my jaw was so sore I couldn't open my mouth wide enough to eat.

2 or 3 times a year. I make sure I have some with me on long drives.

I chew a lot of sugarless gum. Trident Layers was a total game changer IMHO. I cycle between all its flavors except the listless strawberry.

Sugarless gum is good for dental health if chewed after meals because it stimulates saliva production which in turn has its own anti buildup effect. I had this info from my dentist anyway. I don't think it's anything specific to xylitol.

Chewing gum and kicking ass for 33 years now

Automatic thread bump. This poll is closing tomorrow.

Automatic thread bump. This poll's results are now in.

usually get the shells. sticks feel like kind of an indulgence, also knack my jaw and you only get 7 in a pack these days(!!!)

BACK IN MY DAY...

Remember the wrigley gum that you could get for 25 cents? Or maybe it was 50

Except, we called them bees.

gimme two bees for a quarter, we'd say

so I tied an onion to my belt, which was the style of the time

Why when the Bazooka East Gum Trading Company & Brothers started, your penny got you a short piece of prose by Hardy, Wharton, London or Nerval in every wrapper!

chewing gum is fun. I almost never chew gum at home, just when out and about, like it's a distraction/focusing method in the overstimulating city chaos.

Chewing gum gives you that badass don't give a f*@k attitude you may otherwise need a cigarette for. Except your breath tastes good, not bad.
