Back On The Stripe!

[Reephdweller]

<p>So I'm in RiteAid last night getting some things and I'm on the check out line doing my floaty dance thing when I spoke Fruit Stripe gum! Holy shit, I haven't seen Fruit Stripe in years and I was looking for it some time ago. Does anyone remember this gum. I quickly bought a pack and popped like 5 pieces of gum in my mouth. Damn that gum is good! </p><p><img height="180" src="http://flakmag.com/misc/images/fruitstripegum.jpg" width="180" border="0" /></p><p><img height="191" src="http://www.oldtimecandy.com/images/candypix-pages/fruit-stipe-gum_small.jpg" width="251" border="0" /></p>

<p>That gum is dangerous.&nbsp; It tastes so much like candy you may swallow it.</p><p>Really good though.&nbsp; Good call, I'm gonna have to go get some now too.</p>

[JPMNICK]

<p>I used to fucking love that gum. I am def going on a mission this weekend to get some. I remember that after you chew it for 5 minutes, it has no taste and turns hard as hell and was impossible to chew</p>

Yeah, it's delicious for about 2 minutes then it's the worst gum in the world.

They must've added more stripes or something because I chewed it for a good 1/2 hour or so before it started to lose its flavor, but even then it wasn't that bad.

rite aid always has it! i chew it on&nbsp; a regular, , i like chewing a buble gum flavored orbitz and some fruit stripe. bam SUPER GUm.<br />

<p>One of the best lines ever:</p><p><strong>Girl, you should get with me- you should drop that bum</strong></p><p><strong>'cause I got more flavor than <font color="#ff0033">fruit stripe</font> gum</strong></p><p><img height="237" src="http://image.listen.com/img/356x237/1/6/4/0/630461_356x237.jpg" width="356" border="0" /></p>

<strong>'cause I got more flavor than <font color="#ff0033">fruit stripe</font> gum</strong> <p>&nbsp;</p><p>I prefer pineapple Now and Laters</p><p>And, as usual, I have to agree with WhistlePig. It tastes great at first then it just goes horribly wrong.</p>

<p>The last time had fruit stripe gum i must have been 10. Rite Aid has it all the time? I need to pay more attention next time i'm in there.</p>

[TheQuestion]

<p>That certainly is a blast from the past.&nbsp; </p><p>Next you'll tell me they've got root beer flavored bottle caps, too.&nbsp;</p>

So much fun and flavor is promised on the package, what with that jovial horse-fellow and all. What do you get? Two minutes of what the makers consider to be &quot;fruit&quot; flavor and a net loss of fifty cents. Fifty cents you could have pumped into an awesome video game...like Cabal. There is only one candy choice worse than Fruit Stripe gum, and that is buying Bazooka bubble gum in the winter. </p><p>&nbsp;</p><p>&nbsp;</p>
