Re: anyone remember these bubble gums

I can vaguely remember Dentyne. Did it used to have a liquid centre when you bit into it?

Re: anyone remember these bubble gums

Nope. it was thin and flat and hard
Are you not thinking of Freshen Up? That has a liquid centre

Someone mentioned that omega gum also had a liquid centre somewhere on the thread

I used to really like dentyne gum. Especially the one in the red and white pack. Think it was sorta clove flaovour. Really nice! I also remember freshen up. The flavour of that didn't last very long imo. Beech Nut was my favourite though. My Grandma used to eat it all the time. Think thats where my preference came from.

All I know is, when I had it, it will have been about late 70s ish. Was Freshen Up around then?

I remember Germolene Bubblies. Not sure if they were actually Germolene flavour but it was pretty like it. Are you from the North? Maybe it was a northern thing!

Re: anyone remember these bubble gums

anyone remember the very strong tasting cinaman gum that came with a set of cards with pictures from b-movie /horror films that had stupid unfunny jokes on them eg a picture of lon channey as the wolf man with a caption that read something like "johnny was allways unhappy when he hadnt shaved for a few days"

Re: anyone remember these bubble gums

The "Die laughing" card we remember were actually repacked as "Creature Feature"
The originals were issued in the 50's
