The gum that goes 'squirt'

I loved this gum when I was a kid, because they had an amazing bubble gum version.

I must find these establishments. 0_0

I'm assuming that it will have to be a Mom and Pop type store.

i've seen it in the local chain grocery store---Giant Eagle AND in Walgreens...

you can order online

hometownfavorites.com

i hope the link works...they have cinnamon, bubble gum, spearmint and peppermint flavors!!! they DO have a $20 min. order though :( but they have so much candy, you could easily spend $20!! The freshen up is .60 a pack....

I have never seen a Giant Eagle store, but Walgreens are in the Northwest.

That website is friggin' awesome- thanks for the link! They even have teaberry gum, which is divine. I used to get it when visiting my grandmother in Massachusetts.

I think I could spend $20 on nostalgia. :D

You've got to imagine hand it to their marketing department... "Hmm, squirting gum, that sounds terrible." "OK, let's run with that."

My grandmother always had a pack of spearmint in her bag and I used to beg for a piece. Soooo good!

Hahaha I used to love that gum! What a flashback. My grandma used to give me a piece everytime I saw her.

Ha! I was just trying to explain this gum to my boyfriend last week. He's a bit younger and he had no idea what I was talking about. He seemed to be pretty repulsed, in fact. And I was all "NO. Seriously? This gum was AWESOME." Now I'm going to use that link posted above to try and find some Velamints.
