The Swerve flavor leaves a very nice aroma in the washer.


Oh dear. Hopefully not the dryer too? Wink

Aren't freezers meant to be good for removing gum from clothes?

I love mint gum, not so sure about fruit flavours. The juicy fruit flavour was tasty, but sometimes got headaches. Before Wrigleys Ice turned up I was a big fan of their mint and doublemint gum. Really like Cobalt brings back memories.

Has anyone Noticed that the fruit flavors rot in your mouth after chewing a couple of days chewing, and the mint, you could repair a tire with it?

No, like swerve and prism. After a long time chewing it starts to crumble and dissolve. really gross. The mint flavors seem to hold up very well. 5 days on this piece. Very Happy

I never knew someone would chew the same piece of gum for a couple of DAYS...

Well, there's always Violet Beauregarde from a certain film/book I'm sure we're all familiar with.

Though why you'd need to save a piece for several days when there's so much gum to be bought, I don't know... Wink

Finally bought a few packs of 5 Gum (Rain, React 2 [fruit] and Vortex) Only tried React 2 so far, it tastes AWESOME, but the flavor dies way too quickly. I was hoping to get the watermelon one but it didn't have the ice fly logo ;_;

My $.02 so far (er, more like $1.37 x 5):

Cobalt, React2 - not bad, but lose their flavor completely in about 5 minutes and turns to tire rubber consistency in 10.

Swerve- very yummy at first (my favorite as far as taste), but loses its good flavor in 5 minutes and then gets a slight chemical taste.

Rain- nice strong peppermint spearmint, flavor lasts the longest all the way until it gets too hard to chew in about 45 minutes.

Vortex- didn't try it because it's green apple and I don't like the sour smell. My 13 year old daughter loves green apple though and said it was very good.

I'm not normally much of a gum chewer, and I've now bitten my tongue (hard) 5 times in the last 3 days Crying or Very sad . My 15 year old daughter (a fan of the Cobalt) says that means "you're not doing it right." Hmmm, ya think?
