BUT it's Jolt energy gum because I need caffeine and am trying to cut back on soda and don't drink coffee. So it's not because I like gum, it's because caffeine. I don't even actually chew it because I have TMJ disorder and chewing aggravates that, so I just put a piece in my mouth and play with it with my tongue. Sounds weird when I say that. The flavor lasts rather a long time compared to other gums.

Maybe you didn't see this in my OP, "For this poll buying a pack and finishing it would count as one time even though a pack obviously has several pieces."

No, I'm in highschool and haven't seen it before... I don't think we chew enough gum to make those things, to be honest.
These used to be very popular not long ago, dunno if they still are.

We made those in the 60s.
Often they ended up on parents' keychains.

It is sugar free and free to all. I also keep vitamin C and B-12 in stock just in case anyone feels like they are coming down with something. LOL. Oh and I keep one bottle in my van but my son's girlfriend keeps stealing it from me, gggrrr that little hussie!!! I have to remember to pat her down before she gets out of my van. ROFLAMBO

Haha, love this Vera.
I'm chewing Trident sugarless right now. And it's delicious.

Licorice-flavored Black Jack was my favorite.
