Fruit Stripe Gum

Fruit Stripe gum was one of my favorite treats when I was growing up. Which is totally illogical since I always acknowledged that Fruit Stripe gum lost its flavor in like 5 seconds and didn't really taste that great to begin with. I think my love for it stemmed from the free temporary tattoos that came with every pack. On my nails, I painted the look of the actual pieces of gum, then for accents I painted the Fruit Stripe logo and Yipes, the zebra mascot of Fruit Stripe. Do you get nostalgic for candy you had when you were a kid? What was your favorite candy?

Bubble Yum

Bubble Yum was one of my favorite childhood candies. I loved the original flavor and hated cotton candy. I recently bought a pack of my favorite gum to see if it was good as I remembered it being. Well, I think that since I was a child my mouth has shrunk because I remember eating an entire piece (sometimes two) at a time and not having a problem chewing it, but man, that is a HUGE piece of gum.
