@Rachel Yeah! I know what you mean about 5. It gets so bad that you can’t properly spit it out, it almost dissolves. YUCK.

I actually always get a sore throat now any time I chew any type or brand of gum for more than half an hour or so. Maybe it has to do with the artificial sugars?

After about half an hour, 5 gum turns goopy. Just thought you would like to know.

In vietnam we chewed rubber tree sap. SEE I was a sniper a real man and we hunted charlie. Well one day i was given a major for a target I hunted him for 3 weeks about to give up I spotted something in the bush. It was the major he was chewing gum thats how i spotted him a saw his jaw moving
needless to say he was one dead major. Oh how the years have passed and I find myself an old bitter man with the glor
y of war behind me. one day at the mall a group of hoods would not let me pass by if only they knew I had found thier kill spots within a few seconds that day. But I played the old frighted man if only they knew. God help me nothing as sad as an OLD MAN or weaker

THAT IS ALL

Don’t feel bad Josie neither do I. Fruit flavored gums never seem to last long. I’m a big fan of the Stride spearmint gun. :D

Sore throats? Is it chock full of citric acid? Or maybe sulfuric acid? Or that boric acid that went missing from angry bob’s reactor?

I’m glad I’m not the only one that used to play with my pomegranate seeds when I was little. I used to get those all the time when they were in season. I still love them. I’ll pass on the gum, though.

Yeah I agree on not being one of the better Orbits flavored. Also there is an obession with pomegranate everything. I love vitatops and they even have a dark chocolate pomegrante flavor for their Vitatops and VitaBrownies

I don’t even know what a real pomegranate tastes like, but do look forward to every Kidz Bop commercial on Cartoon Network.

I found this at Target for $1..99 a 3-pack. It actually tastes nothing like pomegranate but definitely fruity. I love Orbit but this particular flavor doesn’t stand up well to my chomping. After about 20 minutes I find that I really have chew this to keep it in tact….otherwise it turns to mush.

*Note* While at target…a mom throws something into basket…her son asks “What’s that?”, the mom answers simply “Raisins.”…the kid responds, “I don’t like raisins, they make me poo!”…the mom turns to be and turns the color of a pomegranate :)

Another funny thing….growing up the ONLY time I ever got to enjoy said fruit was when I went over to my “rich” friends house…they always had them and made everyone else so jealous that they could eat something so wasteful….”wait, this entire thing and you can only eat the little bits around the seed…and you throw everything else away?”

I tried these last year. They were once a limited edition flavor, but it seems enough people liked it, so they turned it into a regular flavor. I didn’t care for it either.

Wow. You chew gum for a long time. Don’t chew Stride or else they’re going to send men in a van to make you spit it out.
