National Chewing Gum Day

#chewinggumday

Humans have been chewing gum for more than 5,000 years. They may have chewed it for pleasure, to prevent hunger, or to freshen their breath much like we do today. The sources used to make gum resulted in minty and sweet chewable globs of wax or sap resin that satisfied the human urge to gnaw. They were unlikely to produce glossy, pink bubbles worthy of sibling jealousy. However, it was still a possibility if you woke up with it stuck in your hair.

Various forms of chewing gum have existed since the Neolithic period. A British archaeology undergraduate discovered a 5,000-year-old piece of chewing gum made from bark tar with tooth imprints in it in 2007. The find took place in Kierikki, Yli-li, Finland, and is thought to be the oldest piece of chewing gum. Scientists expected the gum to have antiseptic properties and other medicinal benefits, according to scientists.
