Around the World Gum Vol. 1


My good friend Alissa lives in Milan Italy. I am dedicating my first edition of Around the World gum to her. After she got married in Big Sur, she sent me all this Italian gum. I have to admit that some of it was a little bit rough but there is a clear winner in the group. Cult, Hawaiian flavored gum was by far the best tasting, longest lasting flavor. The name is suspicious and Hawaiian flavor? Doesn't make much sense but I still give it 4 out of 5 chews. The rest is a mixed bag. Both strawberry flavors are shaped like eggs, taste great and I especially love the juicy centers. The Air gum is pretty bad. One tastes like black licorice. I never understood anyone who likes black licorice so I definitely can't get into this gum. The other one tastes like mouth wash... enough said.
