Which Gum is the best?

    Not many people realize gum is very well known to people who just want to have a good chew in between meals.

   Some gums you blow, some to get rid of plaque while others... are used to freshen breath. Which gum is the best? Well, here are a few brands that I have tried.

  Don't get me wrong, chewing gum isn't a bad thing, but for some people...it's a bad habit. I like to chew gum to help me conquer hunger as well as clean my teeth. There's an old saying four out of five dentists recommend with certain gum brands. Here's a few that I've tried and well...wasn't a fan of.

   Bubble Tape is a bubble gum that was created back when I was kid. They had these commercials for the gen X kids that stated 6 feet of flavor...for you, not them. Them being the adults which we ironically are now.

  I've tried it and, and I wasn't a fan. It had too much sugar in it and it didn't taste that great. It changed companies as I got older. Now with Hubba Bubba owning Bubble Tape, it went from six feet to three feet of gum.

 

  This gum made my jaw hurt and I thought it was similar to Bubble Tape. Very sugary. Every chew seemed like you were working your jaw to death. You can't blow many bubbles in it. That's the sad truth.

   I've tried it once, maybe twice, and never again.

   Orbit gum was considered a healthy way to clean your teeth while chewing. They had ads where a certain woman would show how dirty your mouth is by showing a scenario of people politely cursing. Chewing the gum changes that. I think? I don't know.

   I tried it and I didn't care for it.

   This gum was one of the first of many bubble gums I would try. Bazooka Joe was a famous old-time gum that had a fun comic strip on the wrappers.

   It tasted ok when I was young. They changed the recipe when I was older and...it started to hurt my jaw. Even cut it. I don't know why they would change such a classic. I stopped eating this gum.

  Back in the 80's, there was this ad that showed this gum with people either skiing or going to the beach saying, "Juicy Fruti, the taste is gonna move yeah." Somebody was smoking something while creating this ad.

   The taste doesn't do anything to me. I don't care for it, and for some reason, there's some artificial flavoring.

   I still chew this gum. This is the gum that dentist recommend. Trident is actually a pretty good gum. Although...I just eat the bubblegum one.

   It doesn't make a lot of bubbles, but it does have an interesting taste. I don't mind it. However, word of advice. If you want to eat this gum...or any, please remember to chew after you clean your mouth. This gum leaves food residue of stuff you ate before the gum.

  When I was a kid, Carefree was the gum my mom would buy. I tried a piece...and wow...this gum is disgusting. 

  Not her fault. This gum is considered sugar free. Not a bad thing, it's good to have a gum with no sugar. I think it was something else in this gum that made it a turnoff for me.

   The gum shaped in a cube. I buy this gum as well. But I buy the peppermint flavor instead of the bubble gum one. 

  It has pellet like crystals inside that makes my mouth feel cold on the inside. And when I drink water while chewing this gum...it gets colder, and colder.

  I love this gum. However, I don't have time to eat it all, so I try my best to keep as many pieces as I can before I choose a different gum.

   This gum is supposed to be one of those...chewing gum that gives you energy and goes through five of your senses.

  I think someone was high while making this. I never tried it, but some people think it's ok. I don't care for it and well...I feel this is a gum suited for athletes.

  This gum is an old timey version gun where it comes in small pellets. I used to eat gum that came that way. Not Chiclets, but another brand.

   Chiclets I feel is an old-fashioned style gum that isn't really known as much as it was back then. The only reason I know about this gum is seeing it in movies when I was a little kid.

  Winterfresh gum is a Wrigley brand gum that supposed to cool your mouth. I've tried it before, but it was nothing like Icebreakers where it really did make my mouth feel cold.

  Winterfresh does try it's best with advertising saying that it's the only gum that will cool you off. I don't know if that's true but...who knows.

    I haven't had this gum in a long time, and I think I'll stick to a gum that makes my breath feel cooler.

   Extra is a similarity to Trident. They both are great gums...they help you with cavities (sort of) and they both taste good.

    I like both Extra and Trident. Extra has a gum that not only freshens your breath but leaves a message saying.... give a little Extra to someone you love. The gum is a pretty basic bubble gum. They have other flavors as well, but I think I will stick to the bubble gum flavor.

   Gum, and bubble gum, are going to be around for a long time. From great flavor brands to ones, you wanna throw in the garbage.

   Bubble Yum, Double mint, and other brand gums I never tried, and I don't think I will. When I like a certain gum, I stick to it.... pun intended.
