This Month's candy may prove to be a bit of a challenge for some of you - but since the prize is an original Sweet B Folk Art Lollipop man - I wanted to test your candy hunting abilities!July's Candy is Fruit Stripe Gum!
Fruit Stripe Gum will take you waaaaaaaay back to the days of childhood - where gum was full of SUGAR and FLAVOR - (three minutes of flavor to be precise)!
Fruit stripe gum is the ONLY gum with painted on stripes. In the traditional pack - you will find five flavors: cherry, peach, melon, lemon and orange. There is also a fruity assortment available in a pink wrapper: cherry, grape, mixed fruit, lemon and cotton candy!
Fruit Stripe gum was invented and lunched in the 1960's as an extension of th
e Beech-nut gum brand.Today, Fruit Stripe Gum wrappers come with one or more temporary tattoos featuring - "Yipes" the Fruit Stripe Zebra.
Unfortunately the sweet fruitiness of this gum only lasts for about three minutes. But with these cute stripes and fruity scent - who cares!
Chew your FRUIT STRIPE GUM!
