Review: So I'm looking for top grade chewy gum like pebbles. Thinking what the heck when I first got it. So I tried it, kinda feels you're putting gravel in your mouth for a few minutes, lol then the difference comes in to play. It turns into a waxy piece and you do what it's designed for, chew. And chew. It's a cool experience. Yes helped in the chewing. But another expected surprise us how clean it makes my teeth feel afterwards. I wouldn't make it a habit but your are so clean from chewing on this, you really wouldn't have to brush. Flavor is not sweet or flavorful, it tastes like wax resin would taste. I think that it does somehow clean bad breath, like cleans your mouth, or maybe it is the saliva generated when chewing, I'm not a scientist or dentist. But it helps chewing, strengthening my jaw, with a weird flavor but not bad, neutral really, you can reuse it. I do it for about 20-39 minutes before bed or mud afto in lieu of Abad food craving, lol. Itt takes your focus off unnecessary snacking. My jaw had improved, my teeth fell extra clean after and it's a good time killer.
Review: Exactly as desribed. Have not had the clumping issue and I still have after >1 year.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: what are the ingrediants in this gum?  Is it sugar based or xyitol? thanks**
A: It's tree sap...pure and simple.  It's called "gum" because of its texture when chewed.  It has a very unique smell and taste and contains a wealth of medicinal benefits. It's ancient, literally.  Been around for centuries. Produced in the same way.  Pick up the sap after it falls to the ground. Clean and pick by hand.  That's it. No yellow no.5, or xylitol or any other lab made food substitute

**Q: can i make persian ice cream with it?**
A: Found this recipe online at AnEdibleMosaic-dot-com:Syrian Ice Cream (Éma'a)(Yield:  About 10 cups)9 c plus 1/4 c whole milk, divided1 c heavy cream4 medium pieces (about 1/4 tsp) Chios gum mastic2 1/2 c sugar5 tsp sahlab3/4 tsp rose waterChopped pistachios (for serving)In a small bowl, whisk together 1/4 c milk with the sahlab; set aside. Grind the mastic into a powder; the best way to do this is to put the mastic between 2 pieces of parchment paper or inside a plastic bag and pound it with a heavy object, such as a rolling pin. In a medium-large pot over medium heat, combine 9 c milk, the cream, and the mastic; bring to a boil (stirring frequently).  Slowly whisk in the sugar and bring back up to a boil, stirring constantly.  Whisk in the sahlab mixture and boil vigorously 5 minutes.  Turn off the heat and add the rose water.  Cool to room temperature, then refrigerate until well chilled (about 4 hours).Transfer the chilled mixture to an ice cream machine and process according to the manufacturer's directions.  Once processed, put the ice cream in a freezer-safe bowl and transfer to the freezer to set.  Scoop out the ice cream and roll generously in chopped pistachios before serving.

**Q: Does the product really melt and come broken? if i have it shipped to us will it be unusable by the time i receive it.**
A: Don't think so. It holds well!

**Q: can this be shipped to Australia?**
A: yes, but we recommend an express shipment method

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review
*by A***S on 11 January 2024*

Just popped my first 5 pieces! Not bad. I happen to like the flavor! Pine & citrus . . . over an hour & still going strong. Took the picture and it was crunchy when I put it back in my mouth. Gets a little crunchy if I mouth breathe. Not a fan of that, but it's not a quality thing, just a testament to the fact that I tend to run cold. I took a picture so you can see what 5 pieces will really net you. A lot of the reviews I read mentioned 5 pieces, but dang! I'm recommending 8-10 to get a normal-sized wad. I'm not looking to get a chisled jaw. I just want something to do with my mouth because I have a pretty idle job. Sometimes I get dry mouth & I'm tired of sucking on water or soda or coffee. I'll try and update after a few shifts, but so far it's doing what I need it to. Good flavor, something to chew when bored & keeps mouth from going dry. Also helps focus on nasal breathing as opposed to the mouth breathing I'm trying to get away from. Definitely recommend to anyone!
