Thank you to Simply Gum for providing me with product in exchange for review. All opinions are my own.
Gum is something I really enjoy, however when it came to me switching to a healthier diet, gum was left behind. There were so many odd ingredients and so much refined sugar or sugar replacements that I just decided I was better off dropping it cold turkey. Now that isn’t to say I didn’t cave and grab the occasional pack here and there but once my kids started asking for some I realized that it wasn’t worth it. I didn’t want to give my kids those ingredients or create a habit associated with bad ingredients.
Simply Gum has helped me enjoy gum again and proudly! Simply Gum uses 6 simple ingredients all of which are pronounceable, most are organic, and all familiar. Now this gum isn’t your typical convenience store gum, its has a beautiful earth color to it and the pieces are irregular sized and shaped, both things I appreciate. The sticky-ness is a bit more than conventional gum but only if you’re taking it out of your mouth. Now Simply Gum noticed the sticky-ness and with every pack of gum they offer an attached packet of after chew gum wraps!
The flavors to this gum are delicate, accurate and pleasant all without being an overwhelming chemical laden taste. My husbands favorite flavor was maple, mine was coffee and as I have mentioned before I really dislike coffee as a drink! I really found the mint to be the prefect amount of intensity without being too much, that often times mint gum can be. The fennel licorice was an unexpected loved flavor as well. I am pretty used to a natural licorice flavor as our toothpaste is flavored this way so this gum was a nice breath freshening refresher. The cinnamon was also a favorite of mine as well as it was very true to taste without the need of red food coloring and hot spice that regular gum can tend to have. The only flavor my family didn’t care much for was ginger, but I think thats because we aren’t really accustomed to eating much real ginger in our regular life.
If you’re looking for a healthy, gum alternative Simply Gum is an amazing option. Fill your gum chewing desires without filling your body with horrible ingredients!

I’d try it if I could chew gum. I have TMJ and have had for years, and chewing aggravates it. Yep, even chewing tough food–it’s a pain, literally. I would try Simple mints if they made them!

very bad, trust me.
I have never heard or seen this gum before. admittedly it does have a very different look to it, and once you got past that, I bet it is quite flavorful. Its unsual but I would try it.
