We have a thing for bubbles…and another iconic bubble on our faves list is the bubble you get while blowing bubblegum. It’s so much fun to blow big bubblegum bubbles! Bazooka bubblegum was always my favorite, yielding the biggest, strongest bubbles on the planet!
In my younger years, there were times I was known to put two or three pieces of Bazooka bubblegum into my mouth at the same time. Yes, I probably did look like a cow chewing its cud and the rigor made my jaw sore, but I loved the sweet mastication.
It wasn’t until later that I learned that every pink, gooey piece of Bazooka bubblegum was 50 calories! Yikes, no wonder I gained 20 pounds my freshman year in college.
But chewing gum also helped relieved the college stress!
So for many years I was off the blow bubbles frenzy and bubblegum, but now I’m back for an occasional pop, chew, blow and Pop!
Talk about child-like fun! And adult stress release! It’s worth every single calorie!
You are never too old to act like a kid and blow big Bazooka bubblegum bubbles that land all over your face!
