@mediocrebot@pmarin@xobzoo I suspect chewing gum doesn’t give you a third arm… But the picture is from the perspective of one who has chewed too much rum gum and is starting to see third arms.
I bought this in the past from either meh or sidedeal. It tastes like most caffeine gums I’ve tried. Which is to say it’s mostly terrible, but tolerable for the 15 min I will chew it.
@thismyusername I was starting to agree with you and thought… the more that are bought today, the less likely they will end up in an IRK. After all they are round discs. Kind of like a chewable tracker
@tbyrd66@thismyusername They are as tasty as a tracker too. I have boxes of these sitting in the back of my pantry. Occasionally I will chew one (half a packet) if I need to focus. But they have a bad taste and make a bad gum. They never have the rebound that makes a good gum.
@EvilSmoo I’ve heard xylitol recommended by dentists.
I don’t know if that makes it any less bad, or just “if yer gonna use one of them, at least this one has a dental benefit.”
@user91030889 I was going to give my other boxes to a friend also but I actually like this person so I didn’t do that I just threw them in the trash too
Once again (common theme for me), I bought a much bigger quantity of this last time it was offered, so I am still using up my current stock. IMO, this stuff is comparable to the caffeinated gum that my ex-military friends always carry around. At this price, in this quantity, it’s a good deal. Flavor-wise, it’s exactly what one should expect: not great, but tolerable. On scale regular gum to nicotine gum, it definitely lands closer to the regular gum side. Another perk, at it’s freshest, this gum is just a bit stale, so I would be surprised if there is a notable diminishment of quality when it is “expired.”
I’d actually take the expiration date seriously. I ordered these twice in the past. Used them as pre workout boost and they worked great at first.
After awhile I noticed every few packs would disintegrate in my mouth into a gritty paste. The older the packs have gotten the more often it seems to happen. It is only fair to mention that many (but not all) of the bad packs were kept in my gym bag left in a hot car. I came to the comments to see if anyone else had this experience.

Does this gum give you the runs or make you run?
@yakkoTDI Both would be convenient, especially when you need to run to the restroom.
I read this as Rum Gum at first.
#new business idea
/showme people getting drunk chewing gum
@mediocrebot I’m concerned about how much the AI Bot knows about our bad personal habits.
@mediocrebot @pmarin I’m also
concernedwondering how much gum you have to chew to get a third arm…@mediocrebot @pmarin @xobzoo I suspect chewing gum doesn’t give you a third arm… But the picture is from the perspective of one who has chewed too much rum gum and is starting to see third arms.
@OnionSoup @pmarin @xobzoo
I think this must be the indispensable Right Hand Man we always hear about.
@macromeh @pmarin @xobzoo I think it’s why you’re not supposed to swallow double-mint gum.
Déjà chew.
@ircon96 Wait a minute, i think i just realized what they’re up to! When you offer the same gum this many times, it needs to be caffeinated…?
I bought this in the past from either meh or sidedeal. It tastes like most caffeine gums I’ve tried. Which is to say it’s mostly terrible, but tolerable for the 15 min I will chew it.
Best time to sell food items on meh, middle of the summer. May your meh shipment sit on unrefrigerated truck for 2 weeks.
@username It’s absolutely the ideal season for shipping a pallet of candy corn, that’s for sure.
Can you clarify please? The description says both:
48 individual sachets containing 2 pieces per sachet
AND
24 sachets containing 2 pieces per sachet
I’d definitely buy the former, I might buy the latter.
@Zelucifer i got these in the mystery food box that was on sidedeal. each box contains 12 packets, each packet containing 2 pieces
@omally @Zelucifer 12 times somethin…pieces, sachets, packets, boxes . Prob be some ABC gum as well?! Just take my 5 bucks!

@Fuzzalini @tbyrd66 @thismyusername
Does it taste as bad as that Trojan gum from the dispensers in the men’s room?
/giphy fishy-irate-brain
I’m a sucker for caffeine. Haven’t had run gum before but I expect it will not be great & get the job done.
@RogerWilco I feel sure this gum will meet your expectations. I’m back for another pack of this today because of the price, and the efficacy.
I don’t really want caffeinated gum but five dollars…
Perfect for chewing after your run ham dinner.
Just here to say wintergreen is the best mint flavor. You can disagree, but then you’re wrong and everyone will laugh at you.
@warpedrotors I thought spearmint was the best, but now I know know better. Thank you.
/showme people running away from sorbitol, xylitol, sucralose, and other poisons
@mediocrebot Accurate.
@EvilSmoo I’ve heard xylitol recommended by dentists.
I don’t know if that makes it any less bad, or just “if yer gonna use one of them, at least this one has a dental benefit.”
@EvilSmoo did you leave Aspartame off that list intentionally?
@EvilSmoo @wickhameh Can’t forget Ace-K, either.
“Best By July '24”
Better get chewin’
Is that like what Mom always called “Nose Candy”
Man, She really loved to run around all over the house…
This gum is so nasty I threw boxes away. I even took it to work and no one can tolerate it. Nasty.
@user91030889 agree. Plus the flavor only lasts for four to five chews. I got no caffeine boost either
@user91030889 I was going to give my other boxes to a friend also but I actually like this person so I didn’t do that I just threw them in the trash too
So, this gives you the runs?

Still trying to get the wrappers off the ginger chews…
If there’s a worse gum you could try, I would tell you: This is the one!
It’s decent. In for a few. But kinda an odd order number for a “running product”: stupendous-grieving-family. Is that what you get for running?
