  • 15 minutes at the most... People around me tend to chew gum for at least an hour. It's baffling, doesn't it lose its flavor after like 10 minutes or something?

  • Usually until it loses its flavor, which is around 10-15 minutes I think? I don't really chew gum often and it really depends on the flavor.

  • ...I can chew for hours, especially when I'm busy working. For some reason the stuff can actually help me concentrate despite its eventual loss of flavour. But eventually I do spit it out when I'm tired of chewing.

  • I've actually found that I can keep a piece of gum all day if a meal doesn't stand in the way. I will chew a piece of gum until the flavor is gone, and sometimes that doesn't occur for many hours when we're talking about mint.

    I suppose those bigwigs that run the gum company can market their product pretty well; the flavor does last for a long time.

  • I usually keep chewing up I find a bin. Sometimes this causes me to keep chewing the same piece of gum for up to two hours. xD

    I consider gum pretty useless after the flavour's gone, so however long it takes for the gum to start tasting like paper.

  • I could chew it for hours until my jaws hurt but I only do it until I am fed up with it and the taste has completely left.

    I chew gum until the flavor is gone. Then I usually just stick another piece in there with a old one and continue to chew. So I suppose 61+ minutes.

  • I can chew for a long time. I could chew a piece of gum all day but I usually don't do that whole sticking it behind my ear thing. D: I don't chew the juicy fruit or anything. My choice of gum is Stride. :B It lasts forever and it's so awesome. <333

    To people that chew gum till its tasteless: Try chewing Stride Gum. :B

  • At max, approximately 3 hours. Then I usually have to eat something, so yeah, I spit it out.
