In fact, I spent more time finding non-game hint words after I’d found all five gum flavors than I did playing the actual game. The only thing that slowed me down was the double-N in CINNAMON.
I used to be a big gum consumer until I pulled out a filling while chewing on some Juicy Fruit a few years ago. Since then, I’ve avoided it but I miss the fact that it kept my mouth busy and a lid on cravings.

Contributor
Johnny is a freelance pop culture journalist who has been writing about the internet, music, football and famous people since the iPhone was just a twinkle in Steve Jobs’ eye. Previously known by the pseudonym the Pop Detective, his journalistic career began making up stories about Madonna’s addiction to sausage rolls (this is not true by the way). A man of few talents, his career is rich and various and includes the highs of interviewing Elton John and Blur; and the lows of interviewing Right Said Fred, appearing on a Channel 5 documentary about Peter Kay, and fact-checking the instruction manual for a German cooker. Somehow still affording to live in North London he is at his happiest riding his bicycle and shouting at pigeons.
