Yikes, yikes, fruit stripes gum!!! hahahah that song from the commercial is still in my head sometimes heheh

You can still occasionally purchase this at Michaels Craft Stores, or I have found it at Toys R Us

The last time I had this gum it was probably 16 years ago in 1992. I never had it again because I stopped chewing gum for awhile. So I don't remember if I liked it or not, but it always came with tattoos and still does.

You only chewed it for the stripes. It tasted like crap. I found some not long ago at Toys R Us and bought it for my kids; they turned up their noses...oh well. The nostalgia stops here.

This was my all time favoritegum even though it didn't last long ...lol

I see this all the time at Dollar General Stores

I loved this gum as a kid. The flavor lasted maybe a minute then it tasted like someone pooped on your tounge!

i want to know where you guys got the kind that apparently lasted so long.it only lasted about 30 seconds for me.maybe i chew too intensely.i did love it though.

I bought Fruit Stripe gum all the time, even though the flavor lasted about 0.5 seconds.

that gum has no flavor at all.

Sure didn't last long. Made mom's purse smell good. ha ha

I used to always get this and still do today. Still doesnt last very long, but the flavor is out of this world! :)

I used to buy this once in a while and recently tried it the taste didnt last long but the little time it did last it sure was good

Yeah, like you all say, the flavor didn't last long, but was accurately fruity, in a way other gums of the era couldn't imitate. The happiest gum on the market in the 70's.

wow this gum had no flavor at all.

Oh my I can taste it now,yum!Remember the "ice cream" gum? Strawberry,vanilla and chocolate? Ah the memories.

OMG to the max. Yes, I think these are still out there, but I have forgetton about that Chocolate gum until Angelia ann mentioned it! That is so crazy. It was around 1973 and my brother and I thought that was so cool. Probably because we were small kids. But Don't think I thought about that in quite literally 40 years! Thanks for jogging my memeory. So cool!

I brought a package of this at Cracker Barrel in Mass. Last August.

Came out in the early 60s, and yes, they did have a Chocolate Stripe in the 70s

Fruit Stripes gum. Burst of flavor! Tastes better than other gums. Too bad the sugar does not last like Extra.

This gym always loose it’s flavor in seconds
