    Is there any healthy gum?
    I chew a lot of gum, and I don't mind that. I think that if I keep it up though, I'll develop cavities. I was just wondering if there I an alternative gum that does not contain as much sugar. Because I still want to a lot of gum, but just not Bubblicious. Here's how sugar that's in one piece of Bubblicious gum. Bubblicious - Nutrition Facts Even though this might not seem like a lot of sugar, after chewing at least six pieces of gum a day it starts to ad up. I still want the really sweet taste, just not all of the sugar.

    Hi, I'm a gum lover too!
    There are plenty of sugar free versions out now. You can also get ones with added fluoride which can help your teeth in small doses. Wrigleys Extra is good if you can get it.

    Moomin is right, I think the number of sugar free gum varieties outnumbers the sugar containing ones nowadays. They taste the same to me. (I normally hate sugar free food).
