I tend to be a real stick in the mud when it comes to gum. Do not ask me to buy a different flavor. As a matter of fact, I get a little flustered if the packaging of my favorite gum changes. And don’t even get me started on how hard it is to find cinnamon Trident at the store these days (virtually impossible, if you’re wondering).But if someone offers a piece of gum, well, you can’t just turn it down. That would be rude. And possibly foolish, in the case that said person was offering said gum as a polite way to say, “Whew! That pasta salad sure was garlicky, wasn’t it? I mean, dude. I can smell it from here.”
So today I tried a new kind of gum. And I liked it. It was like tossing a handful of butter mints in my mouth after devouring a piece of wedding cake and pretending that the mints were the calorie-free kind. But without all the calories. And the wedding cake.
Orbit’s Sweet Mint gum is good. Try some.
