Trident gum with Xylotol, aside from tasting nasty,
attracts flies. That's unscientific, but it is my observation.

1. Xylotol makes me really sick. So I understand it being...$hit.

2. Still trying to get the taste from my mouth
I don't see what any of these sugar substitutes achieve, actually. They don't taste good, so what's the point?

3. My gum recommendations
In my 20th day of non-smoking I have developed a plethora of knowledge

Eclipse (by Wrigley) outstanding both in lasting flavor and in usefulness-no mention is made on the bubble wrap package but it is bubble gum too. Made in the USA and Canada (depending on the flavor).

Koolers- a taste explosion! Doesn't last too long. I tend to mix Koolerz with Eclipse, very good.

Drinking water adds to the life of a mouthful of gum but avoid mixing spearmint with very cold water-it is like inhaling a pine tree.

Trident sucks. No need to go for sugar either if you follow the advice above.

4. LOL! Glad to have your knowledge, but I was trying the Trident
because I don't like Koolerz. Weird psycho flavor, to me.

So hard to find chiklets these days, except along the border.

5. just wait til it gives you the sharts... or if you're lucky, just bad,
crampy gas.

That crap kills rats. Gum with sugar won't kill you.
