Default Wrigley's chocolate chip mint gum

Do any of you actually chew those Desert gums? I've been wanting to try them. It's getting to be warm out, and I'll be spending a lot of time with friends. LAST time that happened, I gained 7lb back haha. My fault completely, of course, but I thought if the gum didn't taste terribly bad, I could give it a try when out with friends, as we're all in our 20s and tend to drive around and, well,eat in the summer. I think I'll be able to make smarter choices, but it would be nice to have something different.

Does the gum taste ANYTHING like the ice cream? Saying no to ice cream will be the big make or break it deal this summer. It's been a year, though, and I think I might be OK.

I have tried the Chocolate Chip Mint and the Strawberry Shortcake and
I think they are VERY good. Not too big on the Key lime so I haven't tried
that one.

I'm happy to hear that, downsizer55! And mj5, let me know if you like it or not. I really need something to help me this summer, and I have a feeling Extra classic bubble won't cut it.

I tried the mint choc chip gum and I think it tastes exactly like the ice cream! Very good for cutting cravings and just keeping my mouth busy, LOL!

I really like the mint chocolate chip ice cream ones. I tried the strawberry shortcake one too. That one reminds me of those strawberry eclair ice cream bars.

I think the type of sweetner they use in the gum is not allowed in Canada...
