TIDBITS CHEWS ®
GUM
by Janet Spencer
Today 50% of Americans chew some gum, but 10% of chewers make up for 75% of sales. We average 500 sticks per person per year. There has been a 500% increase in gum consumption since World War II. Come along with Tidbits as we chew gum!
JUST DESSERTS
• In 1898 the “New York Daily Tribune” ran an article from London which warned, “Health authorities here have issued a warning against American chewing gum, which is fast becoming a rage among the children of the East End. The authorities consider it more dangerous than the ‘ice cream’ which the Italians sell in the street, and which has been the subject of a rigorous crusade.” • Some 35 years later, it was still widely thought that chewing gum would exhaust the salivary glands and lead to an early death. • Today we know that it does not lead to an early death; nor does it cause buck teeth or clog the intestines when swallowed. The Wrigley Company advertised that gum would steady nerves, sweeten breath, soothe the throat, relieve thirst, quicken appetite, aid digestion, and improve teeth— and all these claims are true. Gum stimulates blood flow to the mouth; increases jaw strength; relieves pressure in the ears from flying; and can curb the craving for a cigarette.
