Reviews mention

  • Natural, vegan ingredient list
  • Elegant, minimalist packaging design
  • Creative, distinctive flavor lineup
  • Included disposable wrapping papers
  • Short-lived flavor longevity
  • Odd, sticky chewing texture
  • Small, unsatisfying pellet size
  • Limited breath-freshening efficacy

Simply Gum earns polarized reviews: the brand delights fans with natural, vegan ingredients, eco-minded packaging, and inventive flavors like Ginger, Spearmint, Cinnamon, Grapefruit, and Maple, yet it frustrates many who find the flavor fleeting and the chew problematic. Reviews praise the clean formulation and included disposal papers, but cite tiny pieces, odd or sticky texture that can disintegrate or harden, and minimal breath-freshening power as persistent drawbacks.

  • I love that they're trying to make gum with clean ingredients, but it's not working here. It's way too sweet, the consistency isn't great for chewing, and the container doesn't close well which makes spilling all of the gum a common occurrence.

  • I've tried both the gum and mints - they're fine! I think they have unique flavors, but all of them run a bit too sweet for me. The mints didn't really leave me feeling with fresh breath, the aftertaste was super sweet. For the price, there are other brands that taste better and last longer for cheaper.

  • I love the package and the flavors but man this gum is disappointing. Like others have said, the flavor is so brief but also I don’t like the texture. It sticks in my teeth and breaks apart so it doesn’t stay in a “wad” and I get bits all over my mouth.

  • Ok. I’m usually really nice but this feels like you’re chewy cardboard. I love weird textures and such… But a one time purchase was enough for me.

  • Sorry TMI but I get intense nausea frequently and the ginger mints are honestly as good as actual drugs. I am so sad that I can't find them at Trader Joe's or Whole Foods anymore!

  • Tried mint and cinnamon flavors. I love chewing gum and liked the ingredients and the recyclable packaging.

    Pieces were small. I had to eat 2 at a time to feel like I was chewing anything. The texture was fine but the flavoring was awful. It tasted okay for about 30 seconds and then just faded into a weird sour cardboard taste. Ugh. If you chew gum for fresh breath, this is not a good option. The texture also deteriorated and I couldn't blow bubbles or anything.

  • I like the idea of natural gum that is made with simple ingredients, but the flavo only lasts briefly. The gum is very thin and small when chewing that I feel like I need two or three pieces at a time. I like the flavor options though.

    Longer lasting flavors and better consistency of the game would be game changers for this brand!

  • This gum does not retain flavor whatsoever and I’m not convinced that it actually freshens breath.

  • Love this gum! It is so crazy to me how many harmful ingredients can be found in gum, but not this one! The flavor is great and it has flavor for similar times as other more harmful brands. Love this gum!

  • I actually really enjoyed this gum, it’s very clean and definitely tastes different from the traditional gum that I was used to, but I really enjoyed it

  • Simply Gum offers a refreshing alternative to traditional chewing gum. Made with natural ingredients and free from artificial sweeteners, it's a guilt-free treat that still delivers on flavor. Overall, Simply Gum is a fantastic choice for those looking for a healthier gum option without compromising on taste. Highly recommended!

  • The gum is not too tasty but I like that it comes with wrappers on the side to take your gum out in.

  • Love that this gum doesn't have any of the nasty stuff in it, hate how GUMMY it is... like, to the point where it was completely sticking to my teeth after just a few chews. I'd probably just go with a mint if I was concerned about something like bad breath.

  • I like that these are a healthy choice and the taste is very nice, but you need to chew multiple of them at a time to feel anything substantial in your mouth. And they lose their flavor very quickly :( I do like the innovation of including a bunch of little sheets in the packaging to wrap your gum in when you're done!

  • The best gum. The flavor doesn’t last but being able to chew gum without all the extra additives is worth it.

  • The texture of Simply Gum is certainly something that takes getting adjusted to but I really enjoy it. Knowing my gum is more natural and vegan gives me peace of mind but I also love the flavors. My favorites are ginger, spearmint, and cinnamon. I also love that there are wrappers I can dispose my gum with included in the package.

  • Picked these up at the checkout line, love the packaging. Unique taste and not overly sweet. Flavor didn't last that long but would definitely buy again.
