Bubble Juice

Friday, November 10th, 2006

The first thing that caught my attention about this product is the unique choice for the packaging. Boasting that these little bubble gum nuggets are made with real fruit juice, the marketing department must have made the decision to put them in what looks like a miniaturized juice box. The gum itself comes in a form that looks just like the little blue pebbles that belong on the bottom of a fish tank. Thankfully they taste a little bit better then that, just not for very long. The flavor was gone in what seemed like less then a minute, and after that I could have been chewing on a pencil eraser for all I knew. At least the “juice carton� packaging it came in had a word jumble game on the side to distract me from realizing how quickly the flavor was gone. To top it all off the gum turned my entire mouth blue for about an hour and a half. Other than that this gum was okay but there is a whole lot of other bubble gum I would purchase before buying this brand and it’s gimmick-laden packaging.

Skittles Bubble Gum X-Treme

Monday, July 17th, 2006

Skittles has some of the best ideas for candy ever, and they always seem to turn out fantastic. Xtreme Fruit Skittles bubble gum is no exception. The flavors are truly extreme, and they just burst in your mouth. Unlike regular Skittles this candy will last longer because it’s a gum. The best part about the new Skittles bubble gum is that the flavors go together incredibly well. I can pop in a tangerine and a blue raspberry at the same time and the flavor tastes even better.

“My favorite combination would have to be green apple and tangerine because they are both sour, and they compliment each other very well,” comments Natalie.  “I usually don’t pick out the favors I prefer to just open the cool box and pop in several and see if I can guess what I got,” adds the frequent gum chewer, Pablo. The box is indeed easy and unlike any other. It keeps the gum safe inside, along with the wonderful flavors, while is still easy to open. 
 

The pieces are nice and small so that it isn’t at all bad to have ten at the same time. I personally like to start off with one small piece of gum, and then as it starts to lose its flavor I take another one and just keep adding until I have just the perfect sized gum to make the perfect sized bubble. Skittles has truly outdone itself by creating this new masterpiece that is delicious, long lasting, and easy to open and close.

Cry Baby Gum

If you love gum and sour candy then look no further because Cry Baby Bubble Gum is the perfect gum for you. Cry Baby Bubble Gum is the best sour gum because it actually tastes sour. There are other types of gum that say they are sour, when really they are not. Unlike most sour gum, Cry Babies don’t just have sour powder in the inside; instead they are all around sour and don’t lose flavor quickly.

Because Cry Babies don’t have powder in the middle it is easier to just bite half and save the rest for later. “Sometimes I can’t finish a whole ball of gum. Cry Baby gum makes it easy to just chew half and not spill powder everywhere. It also makes it easier to share,” says a satisfied candy lover. Cry Babies are also made by one of the greatest and the original bubble gum producers, Dubble Bubble, which gives you the extra reassurance that it will satisfy your sour-loving taste buds.  This gum comes in five fantastic flavors: sour lemon, cherry, apple, berry, and orange. In the packaging there are two of almost every flavor. If you would like to get more of the same sour, delicious flavor then you can just pop another one out. If you would like to mix it up and create a new flavor then you can get two or more different flavors and experiment. Cry Baby Bubble Gum is the best, original sour gum and the taste proves it all.
