The flavor goes away very quick.

Nothing stays the same.

Back in the day, Fruit Stripe gum would last over an hour.

That was my favorite gum - back when I was a kid and actually chewed gum. It didn't have much of a flavor life, but it sure had great flavor while it lasted!

I got busted trying to steal a pack of it when I was 5 and had to apologize to the IGA manager. Little did they know, I had 2 other packs in different pockets lol.

Been years since I've had it. I do miss the 5 seconds of flavor that it offered.

Yeah, they'll say it only lasts 5 seconds and it's only 3 inches when it's really 5 minutes and 6 inches.

Damn dishonest critics!

Was it cinnaburst where you could chew the wrapper and the gum?
Fruitstripe was good, I was always partial to the purple.
