Discontinued after 54 years. I remember it being really good for those 30 seconds that the flavor lasted.

    I kind of remember it... but then the last time I chewed gum was probably 40 years ago. 
    Well now.. that in of itself is kind of weird.  :lol:

    I always remember Kevin McCalister tipping Rob Schieder’s character with fruit stripe in home alone 2.
    I wish I was a sacrifice, but somehow still lived on.

    I used to take two sticks and just rest them on my tongue without chewing, to increase the half-life of flavor. Flip them over after about a minute and absorb the other side, lol.

    Please say you weren't an elementary school kid knowing about half life! HIGHSCHOOL at least!
