3.00 - Wrigley's Extra Fruit Sensations: Mango Smoothie

Extra Fruit Sensations Mango Smoothie, also by from Wrigley's (how many freaking gums do they have???), turned out not to be a great gum, as you will see. Perhaps it is the Mango, perhaps it is the Smoothie...



The reviewers for this gum are: Dan, Jay, and Kevin. Special Guest reviewer, Chromer.

Flavor Longevity: 3.75
Jay - 3

Chromer - 3

Comments:
"Thank Jesus! At 10 Minutes it started becoming tolerable, then at 20 minutes I spit it out, but it was about the same as it was 10 minutes in."
"Lives up to its claims."
"It really didn’t last that long. No longer than any other gum."



Taste: 2.25
Jay - 2
Kevin - 2
Dan - 3
Chromer - 2

Comments:
"This gum tastes like a mango...if mangos tasted like chemicals."
"Fairly mediocre – Initially had hints of Mango and a creaminess (like a smoothie, which it claims to be), but it had a lot of weird aftertaste action going on that wasn’t the best. Not vile, but not good."
"It wasn’t fruity enough for fruit...it wasn’t sweet...it was just kind of there. It was citrusy though."



Flavor Strength: 3.25
Jay - 3
Kevin - 3
Dan - 3
Chromer - 4

Comments:
"Too Strong, I don’t want this in me anymore."
"Could have used more of the good stuff and less of the bad."
"It was pretty weak from the get go."



Texture & Consistency: 2.75
Jay - 2
Kevin - 3
Dan - 4
Chromer - 2

Comments:
"A little fluffy feeling."
"Decent. Similar to other Sugar-free gums."
"It was a tough chew. The beginning was hard, but once it softened up, it was very rubbery. Like when you have had a piece of gum in your mouth for 6 hours."



Refreshment: 3.00
Jay - 3
Kevin - 3
Dan - 4
Chromer - 2

Comments:
"Makes my mouth mad, but does keep it moist. Maybe it is trying to protect itself from the horrible taste."
"Kept the mouth moist and gum was pretty chewable."
"It didn’t do too much to refresh. The citrus flavor wasn’t good enough, the flavor wasn’t strong enough. The only real good part was that it didn’t dry out my mouth."



Overall Score: 3.00
