Children love gum. When I was a young girl, I found it really frustrating that we were not allowed to chew gum in school. I loved it and I could chew on a single gum for hours and hours. I remember I went to a camp one summer when I was around 10-11 years old and one little girl chewed on the same gum during the whole week. She would take it out while she was eating and stick it to the roof of her mouth while she was sleeping. Aside from that she, was chewing that same piece of gum. Now as an adult, I find that really gross. I don’t chew gum much anymore and even when I do, I spit it out as soon as it loses its flavor.
