My Strange Chewing Gum Addiction

The average person chews 300 pieces of gum annually, I, on the other, chewed more than 1,000 pieces annually and have swallowed approximately 250 pieces. One day I was in the car with my dad and he yelled at me for popping my gum but I wasn’t doing it on purpose. Now I don’t chew gum around him. I can honestly say that chewing gum has to be the most fascinating things I have done in the many years that I have had teeth, although the flavors don’t last as long as I intend for them to.

John B. Curtis was the creator of chewing gum and if I could have the opportunity to meet anyone that created or invented something it would have to be him. He has made my days of eating candy reduce by 50%. I would in fact say that chewing gum is a hobby or at least one of my hobbies. Gum was recommended by dentists because it has Xylitol in it, a sugar which is healthier for the teeth that is found in foods and most chewing gum.

I honestly wish that I can explain to you the wonderful sensation that I get from the chewing gum but no words come to mind. I’ve been craving gum since 7:00 this morning and it hasn’t gone away. Can someone please get me some gum.
