I hate gum in general. In fact, I don't think it as popular as it was when I was a kid, but I could be wrong.

I definitely like sugarless gum. My favorite flavors are mint, fruit flavors, and cinnamon. Lol, is that all of them?

Bubblemint sounds awesome...combines two of my favs! I'll be on the lookout for that one. Thanks @RinaRina for the recommendation!

Speaking of sugar substitutes, I have one on my shopping list that's new to Trader Joe's called Allulouse. I think it's a mix of Allulouse and Stevia. I use sugar substitute all the time so can't wait to try it. I've heard it's really good.

I don’t like any kind of gum.

I don't like any kind of gum, and I avoid everything with artificial sweetners so sugarless gum is going to be a hard pass for me.

@RinaRina I am addicted to sugar free gum. Mint and or spearmint flavor is my favorite. I love trident...eclipse and Dentyne brands. I chew gum after dinner instead of desert. I became a gum -aholic. 30 years ago when I stopped smoking menthols cigarettes cold turkey....thus the mint gum....

I never chew in pubic...just at home. I donot like the way it looks when people chew gum 😄

I don't like chewing gum. For some reason all gum sticks to my teeth ...they're all my real teeth, too. No idea why that happens.

I haven't chewed gum in ages - ever since I learned it's not good for you.

In short (from what I took away from the class), the chewing starts the digestion process and produces the acids but there's nothing in your stomach to break down which isn't in your best interest.

@ThinkingOutLoud There are good and bad things about sugar less gum.. after meals makes it can help clean your teeth....and gum sweetened with Xylitol sweetener can stop plaque. On the down side, gum can cause gas from Sorbitol artificial sweetener...and as you mentioned upset an empty tummy
