SWEET Tropical


Extra Fruit Sensations Sweet Tropical really does taste like fruit. It is the first gum I have tried that has incorporated grapefruit into its flavor. Bold move and executed well.. I give this gum 4 out of 5 chews for both its flavor and originality. Props to Extra for "extra" flavor on this one!

Tastes like Lemonade..........


Orbit Mist Raspberry Lemon Dew really does taste like lemonade. Probably the best Orbit Mist I have tried so far. The flavor doesn't last too long but I would definitely chew this gum again. 3 1/2 out of 5 chews.

Lime Melon Orbit


As a huge fan of fruity gum, I was very excited to try this new gum by Orbit..... Lime Melon. On the packaging it say's "tastes like real fruit" and you know what? It really does, the flavor is really great. The only real problem here is the mush factor. I give it 3 out of 5 chews.... just for the mush factor alone.

Stride Shift..... Flavor Changing Gum??? Whaaa???


This gum is the future. Gum that changes from one flavor to another. This particular gum changes from Citrus to Mint. The concept is that if you are undecided about what to chew... you could chew 2 different gums in 1 piece. The execution of this gum could be way better. I can't really decide when I am chewing the mint and when I am chewing the citrus. Also there is nothing I hate more than mushy gum and this gum defines mush. I would give this gum 3 1/2 out of 5 chews on the concept alone.

Not so Fabulous Fruitini


This gum is disgusting! Seriously fowl tasting. This gum is so bad I think it needs to be recalled off the shelves. I can't really even describe the flavor I just know it is almost un-chewable. Save yourself the the $1.50 and please do not buy this gum! 1 out 5 chews

MEGA MYSTERY


When I first saw this gum at the convenient store I almost fainted. Mystery gum!?!?!? The whole concept is amazing and so intriguing. On top of it all, it lasts long and tastes great. It is very fruity and sweet but I am very perplexed on the origins of the flavor. Such a mystery! 4 out of 5 chews

MAUI MINT


I chewed this gum on NYE so I thought it would be fitting to be the first gum I write about in 2010. Out of all the Orbitz mint/fruit combo's, I probably like this one the best (although strawberry mint does come in a close 2nd). The flavor is subtle but very good and lasts for a decent amount of time. However I found the taste to not be so wonderful when I was chewing it at 5:00 in the am. Definitely a daytime gum. 4 out of 5 chews
