but here's the mysterious thing (with ANY flavor of gum).... if i cry or get angry (which has been often lately), the gum disintegrates! literally turns into non-gummy mush.
I love this gum! I have like three extra packs in my purse just incase I run out lol. I haven't cries while chewing it so I haven't experienced it turnig to mush. But I have had other gum do that. It's kinda gross lol
Do you ever go to the acupuncturist? Nothing to do with gum, but with the crying (or the reason for the crying). If he/she is a good one, it can totally help!
Yes it happens to me! I am so glad I read the comment by Haylie, it makes me feel better knowing that there is a scientific explanation and I don't just have toxic mouth syndrome!
umm I'm with A. Back in the dating days...it would dissintegrate while kissing. Could never figure it out. Thanks Natalie for scientifically explaining everything.
I wasn't crying, but I think I was angry - and it was slimy and super mushy. I was totally grossed out. I have the Berry flavored one in my purse right now. It's yummy for about 2 minutes.
Nat, Or can I call you that? I don't know you personally at all, but I nickname everyone. I was just gonna say you should try Extra polar ice. It's the best gum ever,I've been chewing it for fifteen years. It will withstand anything, never gets stale, and doesn't disintegrate.

this happens to me! i swear it! if i start to cry, the gum goes mushy and gross. i thought i was the only one!!
it definitely happens to me. how weird is that!
i cant remember crying while chewing so i dont have a testimony of the mush thing.
but i do have a testimony of this gum. Nat gave me a piece on sunday and it was like a party in my mouth.
eww only during NCMO. too much info? i think so.
I love this gum! I have like three extra packs in my purse just incase I run out lol. I haven't cries while chewing it so I haven't experienced it turnig to mush. But I have had other gum do that. It's kinda gross lol
Yes, yes! It does! It is not pleasant.
Totally. It's the salt. When you cry or get angry or overly emotional in any way the pH of your mouth changes.
Nerdy fact brought to you by Haylie Swenson.
yes. me too. its gross and annoying.
I don't think I've ever been crying with gum in my mouth... But I guess I pop a piece in next time I'm feeling emotional and get back to you!

This is my new favorite gum too. I used to be a orbit's kind of girl, but i'm digging on the 5 right now.
haha I'm picturing your disgusted face from the "mint mohito."

I love that I just read "NCMO." Haven't heard that since Utah.
Crying totally ruins gum. I think it's the salt or something.

YES!!! WHY?!?!?!
I've never had that experience with gum, but that is also my latest fav!
