Here's Your Frivolous Topic!

When I was a kid I used to buy Boozaka. That was the name of the gum. I liked it because of the comics I get on its wrapper. Cool wasn't it? I don't buy chewing gums anymore.

Not as exciting as we age, might ruin some dentures lol!

I still chew mint-flavored chewing gums, very useful when I have to mantain a nice breath for a few hours! The ones I chew are the standard ones and they don't contain sugar but artificial sugars (which can be even worse) and flouride (contained in toothpaste, it kills bacteria but it can also be poison for humans). I used to blow bubbles (in Italy we have a gum called "Big Babol"), I tried recently but my mouth was aching, I'm not used to chew that much anymore!

I never was one for chewing gum. I never did but both of my brothers liked to chew gum and always had some in their mouths. They quit when they got older.

My chewing days are done with gum.My EET doctor told me to get rid of the gum.As this was causing ache in my jaw bones.

I haven't chewed gum in years but I was always a bubble gum fan and loved to blow big bubbles

these days I try to avoid bubble gum. happydent is what i eat these days.

I can't even remember the last time I chewed bubble gum. I used to chew Extra until my jaw started hurting and found out I have TMJ. Now I use mints.

LOL! Great topic! I used to love bubblegum so much! I'd blow great big bubbles and they would, of course, burst all over my face! I couldn't snap it the way my friends could, though. But those days are done. I can't remember the last time I chewed any kind of gum!

Where's the love for Bazooka and the little comics?

hee hee we used to do it too. A big bubble which would go pop.

I chewed a lot of gum when I was in college....always had a pack in my bag. My fav. was standard mint. Over time I realized that chewing gum was filling air in my tummy and making me hungry. Now i don't have any because I've got adult braces and I can't have any. I don't crave it anymore.

I absolutely love chewing gums. Can't live without them. I like all flavours, mint, strawberry, mixed fruit, even cola. I have a whole collection. I just love bubble gum.

Yeah i do like chewing gums but occasionally.

Yes, I chew gum, it relaxes me..and it is certainly better than smoking? If I have bubblegum, I do blow bubbles. Like the dentist recommends though...I stick to sugarless!! most of the time.

I like the part about the bedpost. How we only had so much to get gum and so didn't want to throw any away. Spearmint.

never was a gum lover, so i can't answer any of your questions

I never like to chew them. It is nuisance when it is left in public places after uses. It's gum make problem to stick to our shoes.

Very occasionally. It's harder to find one without sorbitol nowadays and that stuff doesn't agree with me! As a teenager I liked one called Dentine which was supposedly not bad for your teeth.I haven't had bubble gum for many years but you can actually blow some sort of bubble with chewing gum - which is a sad thing to do at my age!

@CinnamonGrl I used to chew Happydent when I was a teenager. I never blew bubbles. don't know how to do that.
