Re:chewing gum

[Guest guest]

I didn't know the regular gum was made of a latex base (gross!) I do chew

sugarless gum occasionally and I know it's a " vice " ...but if they switch to corn

base, let me know--I would definitely avoid chewing gum at any cost if it's made

from corn--unless they actually use organic stuff!

Do you know that companies are working on making a biodegradable gum base out of

corn protein?

Most gum base now is made from a combination of *Latex* (rubber ), chemicals,

artificial colors , flavors and sweetner.

I can't find a gum that isn't made without artificial sweetner.

Anybody know of one?
