Chewing gum
Chewing gum is a type of
confectionery which is designed to be chewed rather than swallowed. Traditionally, it was made of
chicle, a natural
latex product, although for reasons of economy and quality many modern chewing gums use
petroleum-based
polymers instead of chicle. Chicle is nonetheless still the base of choice for some regional markets, such as in
Japan.
