Oof 😥 Is that why chewing gum stays in your stomach for 7 years?

Anyway as a gum addict, the gum-is-plastic discovery was genuinely terrible news, sorry to burst everyone’s bubble(gum) 😅😭

Yes but not safe for pregnancy unfortunately (I’m not pregnant yet but trying to be!)

If any of you really feel the need to chew, I'd highly recommend licorice root sticks (yes the actual wood) however licorice can raise blood pressure if you're consuming too much but it's super tasty. I used to chew on these when I was a kid and like them however I'm conscious it's an acquired taste and mouth feel.
