When will scientists invent a fruity gum that doesn't run out of flavor in 90 seconds

@prehensile Real life Everlasting Gobstopper.

@prehensile Um, literally me

@jalefkowit minty gum doesn't seem to have this problem but my dad used to chew it exclusively while driving so it triggers a weird sense memory of feeling bored and carsick

@prehensile fun to know: fresh sweet basil is where they get a lot of juicy fruit flavor from. At least according to my taste buds

It's only in fresh young leaves not dried, so munch one sometime

@electrocutie that's interesting! I love juicy fruit flavor but it is the absolute worst in terms of staying power

@runoutgroover that's not so bad, I can wait

@prehensile You speak madness! Endless Flavor?! *cue black and white mad scientist intro*

@AshBunny i'd be fine with a 20 Minute Gobstopper

@prehensile Fair.

@prehensile We'd need an Apollo-like program to make such a daunting task possible.

@prehensile i feel like if someone made one that lasted indefinitely they would get assassinated by the government
