Universal Specialties Make Your Own Chocolate Gummy and Chewing Gum Kits - 3 Pack Bundle

Chewing Gum - Once, all chewing gum was made from chicle. That's the sap of the Sapodilla tree, which grows in rain forests in Central America. Men called chicleros climbed up the tall trees and, with their machetes, cut criss-crosses in the trunks so that the sticky sap flowed out. Then the chicle was processed and turned into gum. Today, mose chewing gum is made from synthetic stuff, but the gum base inside this kit includes real chicle. So now, chicleros have a reason to harvest the chicle and protect their trees! Don't just chew, chew chicle! Gummy - We're all used to eating foods from pants that grow in the Earth - Carrots, corn, raspberries, etc...But how about food from plants that grow in the sea?
