chewing gum

Oh I forgot to say earlier that I have a cup of peppermint tea after my lunch at work as well now, and that gives me a nice fresh feeling and I can sometimes even go without the chewing gum then as well. As said above, it does have nasty chemicals in so I prefer to cut down.0

You're not alone. I hate it as well and can't for the life of me understand the attraction of wearing down ya bridgework on something that lost all its taste 2 hours ago.Life's a beach! Take your shoes off and feel the sand between your toes.0 -

We are a completely non-chewing family here as well.
Sorry Idiot (what a name!), but I tend to find it very "unelegant" when I see people chewing about and talking to me at the same time.
I would just recommend brush your teeth more often. It's helping me cutting down on sweet snacks. (choccies don't taste that nice right after a good brushing).I lost my job as a cricket commentator for saying “I don’t want to bore you with the details”.Milton Jones0 -

Crikey, you've just reminded me of another ... Chinese Balls!
They used to be all the rage - two silver balls in a box and you would roll them both in one hand - never could get the hang of those, but had a huge laugh trying:hello: Welcome "idiot" :wave: *you have no idea how difficult that was for me to type your user name!*
