[QUOTE="Sean, post: 282026, member: 643"] Interesting stuff. Sounds pretty bad for Farsight doing newer Sterns, but I can live with that as long as they do some decent pre-DMD stuff with what they have rights to, . Oh and unless they’ve followed Wrigley’s and only make that rubber stuff that passes for chewing gum, the main thing Chiclets had going for it was being made of actual chicle, which is the tree sap (sapodilla, I think?) all chewing gum was all originally made from. It doesn’t hold flavour well, but it’s way nicer to chew as it’s softer than modern, synthetic chewing gums. Plus you’re supporting rainforest conservation. There’s a couple of brands that exclusively use chicle you can get in most health food stores like Whole Foods: Peppersmith is one, I can’t recall the other. [/QUOTE]
