I really don't like this gum and let me tell you why. It starts out kind of sweet and tart at the same time. It's almost like a watermelon Jolly Rancher. The flavor crystals, or micro-bursts, are crunchy in the beginning and then turn slightly minty in flavor. After that, the watermelon flavor mellows out and is mildly sweet. All of that's okay and not what I have a problem with. If it stayed that way, it would be great. What I have a problem with is the fact that it almost melts, for lack of a better word, and does that as soon as the flavor crystals have all been chewed up. It turns into this runny, squishy blob in your mouth. Almost like slime. I can't chew it for more than 5 minutes before it makes me feel gaggy and I have to spit it out. It feels like it's going to slip right down my throat. I don't recommend it and I especially don't recommend that you buy a box with 12, 14 piece packs in it, totaling 168 pieces. Yeah, that's what I did and now I'm stuck with it.

Ryan worked really late last night and I almost went totally crazy. I'm always partially crazy, but last night, my kids just about pushed me over the edge. They were being total butts and I was being zero tolerant and or patient. That's all I have to say about that.

Thanks for the warning.
Zero tolerance. Oh some days.... there is just no tolerance left. It is just worn out, used up and spent.
I love your recipes!
Give it out at Halloween.
Ewwwww. Sounds disgusting. Good thing I can't chew gum anyway!
TJ - that is a brilliant idea.
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA I'm sorry the picture is so giant.
I don't like when gum does that either, I guess you could just let your kids eat it.
Naaaaasty!! That is just sick and wrong--I won't be buying that anytime soon.
Sounds like we were in the same boat last night. If I would have know you were a widower last night too I would have had you all over and they could have played. Next time we better check with each other do we can save our sanity. Good thing I will be gone tonight and tomorrow night to Tina's and Kristen's. Kind of makes up for it--kind of.
Blech!
Ew. that is just nasty. Thanks for the warning. Im not sure I could do the watermelon and mint thing anyway.
Thanks for the warning.
