Orbit Mint Mojito Chewing Gum

orbitgum.jpgThis product was quite literally handed off to me by my girlfriend's brother along with the statement, "Do you want this? It's nasty." So perhaps I indulged into this travesty with my own set of expectations, or perhaps it was just honestly the most uncomfortable sugar-free chewing gum experience my taste buds have ever had the misfortune of becoming involved with. Orbit usually has creatively eccentric flavor compilations the likes of which induce a mild curiosity in the chewer. However with the "Mint Mojito" flavor I personally believe Orbit allowed its innovative spirit to wander a bit too far away from the flavor consistency which we come to expect from chewing gum. A stick of "Mint Mojito" Orbit gum has a strange milky lime flavor fused with a hint of mint. I noticed myself removing the piece of gum from my mouth almost immediately after beginning to chew it. Let's just say I won't be handing this gum box to anyone else, its fate lies at the bottom of my office trash can.

i agree, that gum tastes like toilet bowl cleaner mixed with acid...not good at all.

Shame.... I enjoyed it; but I'm a sucker for anything that resembles lime in flavor.

I think it was really good except it tastes like toilet bowl cleaner but I like toilet bowl cleaner and don't ask why because it is a long story and I don't think you would want to hear it, but it is pretty limey and good in my mind

It actually will get a lot better in flavor after the first few minutes of chewing it, once the flavor has mellowed some. It's just a matter of chewing it until that point...

The first time I ever tasted this gum, I nearly puked in my mouth! It was a foul citrusy flavor mixed with mint. Unfortunately I was dumb enough to get a three pack of this stuff, so I had no choice but to chew the stuff. After a few times though, the flavor wasn't as bad though. I guess it's more of an acquired flavor.

Most orbit gum is actually quite disgusting. The only flavor I'll chew is bubblemint.

I just crave this gum! I received a piece from a friend and had to look it up on line to find out who makes it so I can run out and buy some for myself. I don't normally like sweet gum, but this is great!
