Orbit Tropical Remix

DESCRIPTION:

Taste:  
Gives you a fresh burst of the tropics using little bits of flavors like pineapple, orange, citrus, coconut, and maybe even a little bit of strawberry. Flavor lasts longer than most Orbit gum (surprised me!) and I chewed it all through the morning to see how long it lasted. I like this flavor better than most fruity gums because it has more variety. You can squeeze out many different kinds of fruit (let me know if you can find any more). I like also how it leaves your mouth fresh feeling. Orbit is doing a lot better than before with it's newer flavors. I mean, before they had everything as mint: Bubblemint, Cinnamint, Citrusmint, Maui Melon Mint, Strawberry Mint. Fruit and Mint do not sound good together, or taste good together. Still, without the mint, Orbit has succeeded in keeping the "Just brushed clean feeling" in their new fruit remix gums. It doesn't taste like toothpaste (yuck!), it just feels like you just ate a juicy pear or something and it was fresh and cool from your cooler. Or like you drank some ice-cold juice. It's pretty nice.

Texture:
It is a little stringy and tough after chewing for a while, but starts out a better. It's definitely not a bubble blower. It gets a little rougher after chewing for a while.

Design:
The Orbit packages of gum usually contain 14 pieces of gum, just like this flavor. Each piece of gum is individually wrapped in white wax-kind-of paper that has the "O" of Orbit stamped around the wrapper. The gum is then put inside an Orbit pack that has different designs that you can see here. The one I got has spots on it, but there are more designs too. Then that package is wrapped in another wrapper that hold the whole thing. This wrapper has the nutrition information and other things.

FACTS:
Bubbles: No
Sugar Free: Yes
Allergy Info: Contains: Soy Lecithin and Phenylalanine
Special Features: Different design on every pack.
Calories: Only 3!
Sugar Alcohol: 1 gram
Other: The Orbit logo is embossed on the pack. You can tell if you feel it. That's pretty much it.

Wrigley 5 Rain

I love 5 gum and the titles they give them. It really does tingle like the 5 Rain commercial. 5 Rain starts out as a strong delicious minty spearmint but then fades to more sweet spearmint. This long-lasting gum gives you a fresh feeling of cool mint and it seems as if there is a rainforest in your mouth (no not like pine needles! Just the rain kind of). It is the best mint gum I have ever tasted and has a good, strong flavor. 15 foil-wrapped sticks of gum are located inside the pack. When you stretch it out on your tongue like you're going to blow a bubble, it tingles and your mouth goes crazy (in a good way)! 5 gum is simply amazing.

Extra Dessert Delights: Key Lime Pie

It took 87 chews for the strong flavor of this thing to die down. This is my favorite Dessert Delights gum. It has an amazing flavor of not only the key lime pie, but of the whipped cream too. You can taste the creaminess of it.The key lime part of the tastes like strawberry syrup, but replacing the strawberry with lime. It has a bit of a sour taste, but also has a good amount of sweetness to it. I think It tastes a lot like key lime pie. Extra Key Lime Pie has the strongest flavor of the Dessert Delights family. I think it's the dad. While the ice cream one is the dog.

Orbit Sweet Mint

Reviewed by splasherwinter:

Orbit Sweet Mint has a delicious taste of mint ice cream. It resembles the Extra Dessert Delights: Mint Chocolate Chip flavor, but seems to be a little bit more on the sweet side. It is a good long-lasting gum to chew and can feel a little bit cool like you are eating ice cream.

Extra Dessert Delights: Mint Chocolate Chip

Reviewed by splasherwinter:

I was blown away by the fact that Extra came out with a new line of gum flavors: Dessert Delights. IT just didn't seem like the thing Extra would come out with. The first one out was the Extra Dessert Delights: Mint Chocolate Chip gum. When I popped it in my mouth, I was surprised and a little disappointed; it was just too minty to me. It tastes a lot like Orbit Sweet Mint, but not as sweet. I was very disappointed also that the chocolate flavor did not stand out. You can't even taste. I guess they just thought that the sweetness is good enough to pass as chocolate. The flavor lasts as long as any other Extra gum, strong for 5-7 minutes and then weaker for more than 30 minutes (need to test that). I just hope the next Dessert Delight is truly a delight.

Wrigley's Doublemint

Reviewed by sokker chika:

Well, I wasn't a huge fan of the Doublemint gum. Although, after a few minutes of chewing it, it got a lot better! It's very strong and I guess it almost hurt my mouth. It is kind of a spear mint flavor and I like just normal mint. But over all, I think most people would like it.
