Chocolate gum

I've tried chocolate gum before -- usually that weird ice-cream flavored gum -- but now Candy Blog reports that Bubble Yum has a Hershey's chocolate flavor.

The concept sounds kind of awful to me, but they claim it's not bad.

I have been searching and searching for that weird ice cream flavored gum. My grandmother used to get it for us. Is it still made?

Either Bubble Yum or Bubblicious made a chocolate flavor back in the '70s or very early '80s -- I remember loving the stuff when I was in first or second grade!

i, too, am on a 70s vintage chocolate bubblegum quest. just trying to determine my insanity level, as no one else i know seems to recall it. but it was absolutely delicious and came in a packet and piece sizes and shapes just like bubble yum. they could have made this one too, but i swore it was some other company who tossed their hat in the ring. there was a distinctive commercial for it with kids climbing all over a huge packet of the gum, which was a white package with red and blue letters. but what did the letters say?! smooth n juicy? something like that. bubble smooth? what the...oh, who knows. anyone recall? :)
