Description

Step right into gum's sticky history, and learn how the favorite flavors of the stone age burst into the modern bubble gum! Gum has been scientifically demonstrated to treat numerous mental and physical medical conditions, and can help in the recovery of colon surgery as much as improve the mental acuity of soldiers on the battlefield. It seems like there isn't anything gum can't do: yet from gums that administer medicine to those that improve your jawline, to those used in public art, the modern challenge for gum is in fact... criminalization! Learn how gum enthusiasts risk jail, how it's recycled into useful plastics, the gruesome story of the baseball trading card, and even how top chemical scientists discovered the answer to that most pressing question: does your chewing gum lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight? Contents: the Sappy Story of Ancient Gum 4 Stepping into Modern Gum 12 Bubblegum: Not So Tacky After All 21 Health Effects of Chewing Gum 30 Mental Health 30 Dental Health 37 Colon Surgical Recovery 44 Illegal Gum 47 Recycling and Reusing Gum 55 Marketing Gum 58 Share Your Gum 71 Conclusion: Whether or Not Chewing Gum Loses Its Flavor on the Bedpost Overnight? 74
