I Love Bubble Gum.
10/28/2009 in Where we're Eating by Lindsay | 4 comments
I can’t help it. I just do.
My dad used to tell me that he thought excessive gum chewing was just as nasty as dipping chewing tobacco. While I’ve always seriously valued his opinion, he didn’t come close to stopping me. Once I learned how to blow a bubble gum bubble, I was able to entertain myself for hours at a time… (What can I say – easy to please.)

Growing up, I loved sugar-packed Juicy Fruit and Bubble Yum. Chewed Cinnaburst (w/ paper, of course) from time to time just to mix things up. Have even been known to try chocolate-flavored gum. (Not really a fan, but still had to see what all the fuss was about.) In recent years, I’ve stuck to Orbitz sweet mint flavored gum as my trusty stand-by. BUT, I think I may have found the most amazing gum ever at the grocery yesterday!!
I’d like to introduce you to Trident Layers Gum.

Voila!
It. Is. Amazing. Trident has commercials all over TV right now for it, and again, I just had to see what all the hype was about. (I am as much of a sucker for hype as Lauren…) Um, it’s amazing. I really don’t have much else to say other than I am pretty sure that it is the best gum I’ve ever tried and I am rationing it – so please don’t ask for a piece.
I bought the Green Apple + Golden Pineapple, but the Wild Strawberry + Tangy Citrus flavor sounds awesome, too. Run – don’t walk - run to your nearest grocery and pick up a pack STAT!

"Violet, you're turning violet, Violet!"
Happy chewing! (Told you so…)
xx, L
