Gum Review:

So, I decided this gum reviewing would be most effective if I covered all the brand's version of one flavor. I have spent the last several weeks chewing Cinnamon gum, and here is my verdict on it.

Stride: Good flavor in the beginning, but after about half an hour it kind of fades into just spicy (where it doesn't really taste like anything except hot). The spicy flavor lasts for probably another hour or two, I never really chewed it that long because it was like "ick this hurts to chew".

Orbit:MUCH sweeter than Stride. Doesn't fade into spicy, but the flavor doesn't last very long.

Five:Holy crap, gross. It starts out with the best flavor for like 5 minutes, then it tastes like black licorce for a few minutes...then it just tastes like hot. Really not good at all.

Dentyne: Not great flavor, and you only get 12 pieces per (crappy and poorly designed) package, so really its just not worth buying. Same with Eclipse. The economy sucks, so get as much gum as you can for your dollar.

Verdict: I'm not a huge fan of Cinnamon gum to begin with, but if I were going to buy a package of it, I would go with Orbit. Really, its the only one that isn't to spicy to deal with.

Next flavor with be peppermint.
