  • This gum literally does not hold any flavor, and it’s a really cool idea to make vegan gum but I just wish the mint flavor didn’t go away after 20 seconds.

  • Purchased from Whole Foods and Starbucks and it's your standard gum, but I feel a little better given the ingredients are less artificial. The packaging is minimal and sleek and the flavor lasts a decent amount of time—about 20 minutes. I would buy again and look for new flavors.

  • Loses flavor very quickly. And flavor isn’t very strong to start with. Don’t rely on these to freshen your breath 😂

  • It's alright! I really appreciate the packaging, and the flavors they offer are quite soothing. However, I have to admit that the flavor doesn't linger for long.

  • Similar to other reviews, I love the packaging and the flavors but the gum loses its flavor way too fast. I ended up switching back to regular gum.

    Hi Michael, thanks for your feedback. Because we do not use artificial flavors, colors, or a synthetic plastic gum base, our flavor does tend to be more subtle than conventional gum. Thanks for giving us a try!

  • I love the idea of a chewing gum made with more natural ingredients but after trying every flavor of this I’m not a fan. It takes multiple pieces to even semi resemble the chew of a single stick of “unnatural gum” and you can forget about blowing bubbles because its simply not possible. The gum also becomes extremely hard to chew and loses all flavor almost immediately. The packaging is nice looking but if I had the option of no gum or this gum I would probably just go without.

  • I don't love the taste or texture of this gum.

    Feedback

    The texture felt a little mealy to me. The flavors don't read as the sort of flavors I'm seeking when I'm looking for gum.

    Hi Miranda, thanks for your feedback. Instead of a synthetic plastic gum base, we use chicle, a tree sap, so the texture of our gum is a little different from conventional. Thanks for giving us a try!

  • I think I am too used to the tridents of the world, but simply gum does not taste good and it sticks to my teeth.

    Make it less sticky?

    Hi Melissa, thanks for your feedback. Because we do not use artificial flavors, colors, or a synthetic plastic gum base, our flavor does tend to be more subtle than conventional gum. We have recently made some improvements to texture (less sticky) so we'll hope you'll give us another try!

  • The flavors are really unique and the branding is lovely, the gum has a different mouthfeel than most, which likely comes from the natural ingredients. It's by no means my *favorite* gum brand, but I like it enough!

  • Love that it’s a healthy alternative to gum. Decent consistency but the flavor only lasts like 2 minutes

  • I like this gum but I wish the pieces were a little bit bigger and the flavor a lot longer lasting!

  • The taste and texture is so weird. The pieces are also super small so I feel like I needed a few to have something I could actually chew. I've tried a couple of flavors and none of them did it for me. Over all just not it.

  • I really enjoyed the flavors of this gum, but it doesn't have the same consistency of regular gum. It's not as chewy and doesn't last as long

  • 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!

  • 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 found the gum a great alternative to mass-market gum. It is worth a try and feels like a lot less sugar and a lot lighter.

    My advice is to adhere to the expiration date, if you do, you will enjoy this gum.

  • 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 want to like this so much I can't express it. The packaging is cool, its more expensive than regular gum, it is at fancy grocery stores. Everything I love. That being said the flavor is just not exploding its sorta quiet and maybe that is cool for you but I want my mouth to be on fire so I just need something stronger.
