So sit back, relax, and remember, if you don't heed the warnings of the last post (to NOT buy those gums), run out and get one of these to cleanse the disgust. That is what we do.

A Review Of Disgust...The Bottom 5 Gums (so far...)

So far, this blog has reviewed 30 gums. The time seems right to review which gums were the most disappointing, gross, pointless, and a waste of your $1.25.

Coming it at #4 Worst Gum with a score of 2.08 is:
Trident: Wild Blueberry Twist

About Refreshment: "As tasty as Fruit Loops are, you know how your mouth feels after eating a bowl of Fruit Loops with Milk, and then drinking the Milk? Yeah, it is kinda like that."


Coming it at #3 Worst Gum with a score of 2.04 is:
Hubba Bubba Max: Cherry Lemonade
