Nooooooo!

I loved this gum as a kid. The flavor was so unique and awesome for the 5 seconds it lasted.

I knew what gum it was based on your sentence.

I saw this today. Sad. Those 5 seconds were simply amazing. Best 5 seconds I ever had until sex.
It's not me, it's someone else.

This is a great example of a company that didn't change with the times. Had they put that flavor into the tablet form of gum that is popular today. Then sold it in a plastic tub, it'd probably still be doing well.
