Does your chewing gum lose its' flavor on the bedpost overnight?

I think the answer to that old musical question from 1924 has to be, "No". I mean, come on, it's made out of plastic but what the hell, we're all about the education here on Braindead Shithead so here's a video that shows you exactly how your bubblegum is made. You know, if sugar wasn't hydroscopic (inhibits bacterial growth) and plastic wasn't biologically inert, this stuff would probably kill you.

I think I'll stick with my Jolly Ranchers!

When I watch incredibly efficient automated processes like this, I'm always amazed that we aren't all unemployed.

Um, is it a bad time to admit that my whole life I've swallowed my gum?
Dear god, never again.
Now, excuse me while I go search out colon cleansing products...

Well Madame D you're not the only one. The good news is that barring any diseases of the colon this stuff just runs right through your intestines. But yeah, plastic, who knew?

J.R. -- yeah, I'm really fascinated by this stuff too. Charles Babbage used to get off on manufacturing processes, in fact he used to go on traveling tours of factories to learn how things were done. Sometimes I wonder how he'd react to the automation machinery we have now. I think he'd be like a kid in a candy, er, gum? factory.
