Wrigley's Extra: Fruit Sensations: Sweet Tropical

Citrusy, juicy, refreshing...that is what I see on the packaging for this sweet moist gum. Too bad the packaging was better than the gum itself.

Comments:
"Almost like a weak, yet shitty tasting cough syrup. After spitting it out, there is still this like layer of shitty taste in my mouth, kind of like Orajel leaves..."
"Not the worst-tasting gum I’ve had, but it isn’t great either. First impression when you start chewing is...'Ok, so-so tropical taste...<5 seconds later>...*ick*... artificial chemical taste!' It just finishes up with a very fake taste that doesn’t work very well."
"My mouth does not feel as though it has been to the Tropics."
"You can definitely taste the chemical flavor."

Comments:
"When you first bite into the gum it just cracks and breaks...almost like chewing on a piece of layered masking tape (which is what it looks like btw) that has been left out and become hard with age."
"The only great part about this gum."
