Skittles Bubble Gum is, without argument, the best bubble gum on the market. I'm talking about taste here. As for its qualities as a component in your ultimate plan to win the World Bubble Gum Bubble Blowing Contest, I can't say for sure. Actually, I prefer to use bubble gum as chewing gum; not a big bubble blower am I. But there's neither here nor there for this product review is targeted toward telling you about Skittles Bubble Gum as a flavor enhancer.

Did you know that if you were to chew gum every waking moment of the year and did nothing else for exercise and ate exactly as you otherwise normally would you would lose at least ten pounds. Fascinating trivia, to be sure, but again it has little to do with my review of Skittles Bubble Gum. Or so it would seem. Because, of course, in order to chew bubble gum every waking hour of the day one of the things that would be required is that the gum retain its flavor. As you may or may not know, Skittles Bubble Gum is based upon the popular Skittles chewable candy. So what we're talking about here is gum that is flavored to taste like these popular fruits: strawberry, orange, lemon, grape and lime. If you already enjoy the sweet fruity taste of Skittle candy-or the sweet fruity taste of Skittlebrau beer-then you cannot help but enjoy Skittles Bubble Gum. Of course, those flavors are for the regular brand. For those who enjoy a more acerbic tang to their bubble gum, there is always Skittles Xtreme Fruit Bubble Gum: wild cherry, tangerine, blue raspberry, watermelon and green apple. Frankly, I prefer the Skittles Xtreme-not because I'm an extreme guy, mind you; let's face it, the definition of an extreme sport is one in which you win if you manage to end up on your feet-but because I do so enjoy the sour aspects of life.

But that's another article entire.
