What You Should Know

You'd find this PUR Grape Bubblegum Watermelon Jumbo Gum on the checkout shelf, in convenience stores, or stuffed into backpacks for road trips and quick breath-freshening moments. It has a playful, nostalgic candy-gum vibe with a sugar-free twist (xylitol), but the long list of gums, polyols, acids, coatings and flavor concentrates points to heavy industrial processing — expect a resilient, chewy texture created by a synthetic gum base and multiple additives, a hallmark of ultraprocessed foods.
