mysterious

i felt like this deserved it's own post.
on saturday, whilst i was shopping with madre and ash-bash,
i realized i needed gum.
i went back to where they sell the three packs and saw that stride was doing a 2 for $4 deal.
i immediately jumped on that. 
unfortunately stride spearmint,
{one of my three addictions. see others here & here}
was no where to be found. 
so i settled on another greenish looking color and the new stride mystery gum flavor.
i'm going to be honest with you right now and you're probably not going to like it.
it wasn't as exciting as the commercials make it out to be.
and i'm not the only one who agrees.
the entire bp {minus ali, plus karissa} tried a piece.
we are familiar with the gum world.
we love only the best of the best {stride and 5}.
and here's what we had to say.
the flavor doesn't last long.
the paper each individual piece is wrapped in reminded us of the zebra gum from our childhood.
i felt that the gum got a weird texture after being chewed for a while.
when i said it was fuzzy-ish i just got weird looks.
can you please go get some and tell me what you think the texture turns to?

now as for the flavor...
well, i can't tell you.
if i do, a british man on an ostrich will come and attack me.
so, you'll just have to go out and buy you're own.
or you can swing by my apartment and use the secret password
"i want fuzzy gum"
and i'll give you a piece for FREE!
what a deal.
you're welcome in advance.


love always,
your favorite gum connoisseur
