Childhood Bubble Gum survery

[Sideshow Spock]

And who didn't (doesn't) love..



It never was the greatest gum, but the shape and "candy first" always made it a fun chew..

Tough to choose, but I like Double Bubble a lot, Bubblicious (Orange), Bazooka and Fruit Stripes.

Hubba Bubba - Didn't stick! Awesome marketing too!

Fruit Stripe - Do they still make it?

[Nostalgiabuff]

Hubba Bubba and Bubble Yum. you could actually see the sugsar in it when you stretched it out....LOL
also Bazooka Joe.
I remember tha gator gum as being really thin when you chewed it and very sticky

[The Toyroom]

Bubblicious.....When I chew gum it has to be a decent size wad....No sticks or Trident-sized pieces please....And I CAN'T stand "bubblegum" flavor....

Bazooka
Big League Chew
Fruit Stripes- the best tasting for 15 seconds gum out there

Green apple flavored Super Bubble was my favorite, but of those on the list, probably Hubba Bubba.

Love all kinds of bubble gum (still do)...but I'd have to say Bazooka was my main one.

Today...I also like that sour thirst quenching sports gum...it's the one that makes you make funny faces after the very first bite...kinda like biting into a lime...I love that feeling...lol...

I used to like Bozo bubblegum in the wrapper with the different colored gum balls.

I also used to like the larger packages of Bazooka because the comic would be on card stock and be the size of a baseball card.

Never really been big on bubblegum, but Bazooka if I have to choose.

growing up Bubble Gum was pretty much Bubble Gum . . Double Bubble & Bazooka where certainly the most chewed but I liked the novelty gums as well. The little bag of Gold Nuggets . . . Big League chew . . . the one I remember most as a kid was called Mouthful. It was a huge block of gum about the size of a deck of playing cards. They always had some card with them. One summer I collected the entire set of Ratfink cards.
They were very cool!
BTW great thread!

. . . Big League chew . . . !

Wasn't that the one that was subtitled "man size wads"
