The chips are food, the BAG is not. If you put the whole bag into your mouth in order to get the chips out, does that make the bag food or does it just mean that you're chewing on a non-food product in order to get at the food that is inside it?

Likewise, the gum is not food. Sugar is food. "Flavor" might be food. GUM is not food.
