Do you Chew Gum?

[Fairy Dust]

I used to buy some when I was a teen, not very often though, but I really can't stand the stuff now.

It drives me mad when you get near someone who makes that snapping noise.

Luckily its not too common here, the last time I encountered a gum snapper was in Epcot watching the Circle of Life movie, I had to move in the end or I would have hit her!

 

[momof3disneyholics]

Yep, I still like gum. I try not to smack it though.

 

[Cool-Beans]

I sure do. I started when I quit smoking and never stopped. I've slept with gum in my mouth. I chew almost all day, every day.

I'm addicted to Polar Ice gum now, instead of cigarettes. I couldn't blow a bubble with it if I tried and rarely snap. It is just something I do. Can't stop. Dunno why.

I never was but have recently become addicted again. I chew one piece after my coffee and toss it as I walk into the office.

 

[SwedishMeatball]

I keep some in my purse. I like Orbit minty bubble gum. Also, when we go to restaurants with bubble gum machines, my kids and I fight over the orange ones.

 

[dizneenut]

Yup, all the time.

 

[mommasita]

Very rarely

I don't have a preference either way. If someone offers me some gum I take it and if not then I go however long. I'm not a gum snapper and they get the evil Tina glare because it gets on my nerves. Also, if you are trying to look professional ditch the gum.

i hate chewing gum... i can stand chewing bubble gum sometimes just to blow bubbles, but just chewing it for fun.. nah but as far as ppl go ugh when they start a smacking! I always say to the girls in the office "you need to spit your gum out???" and they'll go "oh was i smacking? sorry!" then later on they go back to smacking.. im not against gum chewing, i think it's a GREAT mind relaxation, and a healthy one but the smacking is gross. I work the front desk and sometimes patients come in and they will be smacking their gum while im writting them a note or getting their receipt and im like this because it's so gross! It's like nails across a chalkboard... ugh! if you can't chew it right dont chew it.

sorry just my opinion! i hear it all day long and sometimes i can't take it! haha!

I used to always have a piece of gum in my mouth; however, due to some TMJ issues over the last couple of years, I have finally stopped. I may sneak a piece of gum if I need a quick breath freshener and it's the only thing I have, but I'll only chew it for a few minutes. I loved Extra's Polar Ice, Peppermint, and Winterfresh flavors. I've moved on to Altoids now, but they're just not the same. Lol

I chew gum often. I can't stand a gum smacker either!

 

[grlpwrd]

I chew gum, but only when I am very stressed. I snap only in private, though, because I know it is rude to do it front of others.

Years ago I was a smoker, but only about ten cigs a day. And only one during the day (at work), so to hide my nasty habit from my co-workers, I immediately chewed gum after my after lunch smoke. I still to this day chew one piece of gum per day, right after lunch and only for a half hour or so. I do admit I smack it a little (sorry!), but hopefully no one can hear me. My favorite is Extra Polar Ice, too! I used to love Carefree until they changed the formula and it became very soft and gooey.

I sure do. I started when I quit smoking and never stopped. I've slept with gum in my mouth. I chew almost all day, every day.

I am also addicted to Eclipse Polar Ice gum. I chew almost all day every day as well. I have never snapped my gum.

Nope. No one looks good chewing gum.

And never chew gum during an interview!

That's me too about the TMJ. I would loved to chew it more to keep from eating on the side so much , but that old jaw goes nuts when I do.lol

I am a pretty compulsive gum snapper on occasion, so I try to keep folks like the OP in mind and not chew it too much in public. For my purse I keep something that doesn't snap (small breath gum) so sorry if you catch me on an off day...
