2.25 - Bubblicious: Blueberry

You know what I just realized? Back when I was a kid, during the Bubblicious-Hubba Bubba wars, none of the big bubble blowing gums had any minty flavors. They were always fruity types. Is that strange? Why not have a minty bubble gum? Orbit has Bubble Mint, but it is a classic bubble gum flavor with a minty twist, not a true bubble gum. I think that is strange.

Comments:
"Were they embarrassed of the flavor and wanted you to not remember it?"
"Disappears within about 15 mins or so..."
"Flavor is gone at the 20 minute mark. It probably went away before, but the gum is kinda boring, so I didn’t notice."

Comments:
"Starts to get hard to chew eventually. My jaw is getting a workout."
"It's rather easy to chew at first, but quickly becomes quite hard to chew..."
"It is a large piece of Bubblicious, but for some reason it seems puny."

Dan - 1
Adam - 1

Comments:
"Didn’t care for this weak-ass gum. Flavor is mostly non-existent, and the chew is not conducive to my chew needs. I have chew needs, dammit! Why can’t you people understand this!"
"No, nothing about this gum is refreshing."
"Not a chance."



Bubble Ability: 3.75
Jay - 3
Kevin - 4
Dan - 4

Comments:
"Pretty solid."
"Is rather easy to create and blow bubbles."
"The puniness of the gum makes it hard to prep it for bubble making, but when you do, it isn’t so bad."



Overall Score: 2.25
