I see that we grew up in a poor part of the world, with only one brand of bubble gum :-)
Although I don't remember meeting a blue variety...

It never ceases to amaze me how foreign I get to feel when the regular food discussions take place in this forum. I've almost never heard of any of the brands that are mentioned.

Of course, in Scandinavia, we don't have that many food brands, since we only eat what we can shoot in or harvest from our land. And bubble gum.
