Not a habitual chewer rarely if at all and when the flavors gone I dispose of it. That said When gum is in my mouth I have to snap it and blow bubbles otherwise what’s the point of it! There’s a dream I sometimes have where I’m chewing gum and when I go to spit it out it sticks to my teeth. And as I pull it out from between my teeth it stretches and always a bit remains in my teeth. It’s so annoying this dream. Actually it’s why I pass on the gum now. I’ve had an unopened pack in my purse for about a year. ---

Sorry I did this. A year later, my dentist noticed uncharacteristic signs of dry mouth. So now I’m back on the gum. ☹ [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/chewing-gum-and-chewing-gum/937228.md?page=1)
