Eclipse Sugar Free Gum, Spearmint 12 ea

Comments about Eclipse Sugar Free Gum, Spearmint, 12 ea:

I take medication that makes my mouth dry, and like most everyone else, I'm trying to keep my weight down. So I eat a few pieces of this a day, to stop myself from eating between meals, and/or to keep my mouth from feeling like the Sahara. It doesn't taste as good as some spearmint gums out there- this tastes more like wintergreen to me. But it's been hard to find a good-tasting spearmint gum that lasts as long as this does. It's powerfully minty, but not as much as say, Cool Mint Listerine, so I do like that it keeps my breath smelling good. I like the initial crackling of the outer layer into the softer gum, though I wish the piece was about twice as big as it is, because when it's gum only (after the outer layer is chewed away), it's not much. I find this gum retains it's "softness" & flavor even after a half-hour of chewing. I am not sure why a previous reviewer said this gum gets tough & tasteless- maybe she got an old package?

Eclipse is a quick fix after lunch when I can't brush right away, or if I want to chase away that scuzzie taste anytime I'm stuck in my cubicle.
(Spearmint is my favorite flavor for any gum - otherwise I like Eclipse gums equally.)

I am an ardent fan of another brand of gum, but my son said he really likes Eclipse so I thought I'd give it a try. The initial blast of flavor I got with Eclipse made me think I had been chewing the wrong gum all along. I quickly discovered, however, that the initial blast was all I would get. After that I was chewing a flavorless mass that became increasingly tough to chew. I am going back to my old brand which dispenses its flavor slowly over several hours!
