What You Should Know

You'll spot this colourful sugar-free gum on the checkout aisle or gum & candy shelf — easy to stash in a backpack or glove box for travel or a quick freshen-up. It gives a bright, nostalgic fruity vibe (strawberry–orange–banana) and reads as a low-calorie, convenient treat. The ingredient list (gum base, xylitol, glycerol, acidulants and flavourings) points to heavy industrial processing for a chewy, glossy texture and long-lasting taste, typical of ultra-processed products.
