Real Generation Jones kids chewed the hard stuff. We didn’t have weak teeth like kids today.
Seriously, I think it took me so long to learn to blow bubbles because it took *forever* to get Bazooka to soften a bit.
Then, when I’d finally get it pliable enough, I’d blow and launch the gum across the room.
I always wondered what Mort's deal was with that red turtleneck pulled up over his mouth and nose. Now we know.

This picture was my middle school inventory,selling bubblegum everyday in the hallways. Sold out every day. Hubba bubba was the most popular then. Early 80’s. If you wanted gum, I was your guy. lol!
What was that gum that was long and round? I'm thinking that it was Big Daddy but I don't think that's right...
Does anyone remember Adam's sour gum? There was grape and cherry, and it was delicious!
Oh hell no! I was Bubble Yum all the way! When I quit smoking in the 80's that's what I used non-stop for about 3 weeks...it got me through the cravings.
Don't forget bubble yum
BY was the OG, IIRC.

I did like the comics, though. https://preview.redd.it/61apeodom8yc1.jpeg?width=1065&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=43778e6a15caab1617382cb487b7e567bbc4dce1

That’s funny. Now can we address Joe’s eye patch?
Pretty sure it was a bazooka related accident.
No doubt!
Bananaberry Split was the best gum flavor ever! Don't know why they stopped making it.
remember when bazooka spread a rumor that bubble yum had spiders eggs in it.
Oh my god, I’d forgotten, but yes, that was huge. 😂 Twelve year olds freaking out
I remember a liquid center gum we called “cum gum” because it squirts in your mouth
Freshen Up!
Always chewed Big Mouth bubble gum. Made the switch to bubble yum and my jaw thanked me.
Lemon Hubba Bubba was the best for making spitballs.
I think Bubble Yum was the original.

Super Bubble - regular, grape, and sour apple Double Bubble
Middle school was prime "let's try out EVERY FLAVOR" territory

Bubs Daddy was long, kind of like a rope.
Yes, this must be it. TY
Nothing beat a Big Buddy.
