I normally don't chew gum, but I've decided to, in efforts to help me eat less and munch less at work. So while my nephews were here from VA, they had this gum on them that was pretty good. I was really shocked. And the flavor stays for a long time.

So I picked up a pack of 5 gum the other day. The one in the red box.

Now my jaw is sore. I guess I was chewing it a bit too much.

Anyone here chew gum? Have a favorite? Stories about gum in your hair?

I usually don't chew gum. But I agree it's a good way to relieve the need to eat something, so when I have some, I use it that way.

Usually I just chew that extra-minty stuff like Eclipse. Throw in two or three pieces at once and it will clear out your sinus cavity in a couple minutes if you're stuffy.

Used to sometimes chew Juicy Fruit but the flavor lasts for about 12 seconds.

Mmmmm gum.
I love the mint stuff but for some reason the fruity or bubblegum flavors *shudders*
I just... can't

Especially the 'ink'd' crap. What's the emoticon for "le barfage"?

I chew pack after pack of watermelon gum, for no apparent reason.

Those fruit gums would be awesome if it weren't for their taste vanishing after a few seconds.

Since mint gums don't have any taste to begin with, I prefer those. Mostly stuff like Wrigley's Spearmint.

I took a taxi a month or two ago and the cab driver had some Fruit Stripe gum. I didn't even know it still existed. I always thought it was kind of nasty, sort of like really bad Trix cereal in gum form.

Extra Fruit gum is rare, but outlasts any fruit stripe crud you can find.

I usually just have a piece of gum here and there.
Mint, usually. The bubblemint flavor is great, if I ever get it.

chewing gum produces more saliva, which makes your stomach expect food and makes you hungrier than you should be. it's also bad for your jaw in the long run and should be avoided altogether.

it's hard breaking snacking habits. try to make a gradual change to healthier snacks and smaller portions, and make sure you start the day with a good breakfast.

So the gum I had isn't the red one, cause I just got that one today. The one that I had before was the purple one.

I normally don't chew gum, since when I start, then I'll start chewing a ton of it and it becomes sort of hard to stop unless I will myself to.

But I'm a fruit gum type of person, and I've recently tried BubbleYum. Flavor sticks around for a while, I'll give it that.

Used to really like gum, but now... :\ I prefer mints, to be honest.

Favorite flavors would be bubble gum, watermelon, spearmint and cinnamon. Oh, and Chiclets.

Shiny new layout!
----------------------------------------------------

If there isnt a pack of orbit *mint gum in my backpack or at my desk at all times, there's a problem.

Seriously... chewing gum actually helps me think sometimes. Not to mention it's good for getting crap out of your mouth before playing an instrument
