Did you know the real reason bubblegum’s original color was pink is because when Walter E. Diemer was looking for a color to put in the gum, the only color around the factory was pink? (Ament, 2007) Also, what is bubblegum and why can you blow bubbles with it? The properties of the gum cause and make it possible for the gum to stretch and form a bubble. What is Gum When we chew gum, we are basically chewing rubber. Gum started out as latex sap from a tree (the sapodilla). The tree grew in Central America, and the sap we chewed was called chicle. Chicle has the same properties as rubber, because it doesn’t break down when we chew it. Later, after World War II, scientists found a way to create something called synthetic rubber. Synthetic rubber is still similar to chicle because it still doesn’t break down when you chew it, but it isn’t natural like chicle is.

Unfortunately, the material wasn’t strong enough and the bubble would break to easily. Also, the gum seemed wet or soggy. Walter E. Diemer was the first official creator of bubblegum. When he was in his 20’s, young Diemer worked for the Fleer Chewing Gum Company. Just for fun, he was trying out a new gum recipe when he created a totally new kind of gum, it was more flexible than normal chewing gum, and you could blow a bubble with it. Then, he lost the recipe, and it took him many months to figure it out again. (Rosenberg, 2017…October
In 1928, the perfect recipe for bubble gum was invented by Walter Diemer. Prior to Walter’s discovery, there were many attempts to create bubble gum. There were bubble gum recipes before Walter’s, but the gum was way too wet and couldn’t keep a form. Being an accountant
Jolly Ranchers also propose a dental hazard. NFL player Barry White for the Dallas Cowboys had to miss a whole day of mandatory training camp because he chipped his tooth on a Jolly Rancher and had to undergo an emergency root canal. Once you suck on a Jolly Rancher for a long time, the hard candy becomes very hard and starts to sharpen. Then, you cut your tongue on the hard candy. Abby, even cut her tongue, yesterday, on a jolly rancher. Not to mention that her teeth were also stained blue due to a blue raspberry jolly
Later, General Foods rejuvenated its carbonated-candy technology and created carbonated bubble gum. This product also provided the crackling sensation of the original Pop Rocks and Space Dust.
The audience was first introduced to Spongebob Squarepants in 1989. Spongebob started becoming a series in 1996. Spongebob was created by Stephen Hillenburg. Spongebob has this sort of childish behavior that makes him be gullible. He believes everything they tell him. Spongebob Squarepants gullibleness separates him from all the character. That makes him very unique because he’s not like the rest. He's very optimistic, good-natured, and naive. The audience gets to love spongbob because of his enthusiasm and gullibleness. In one of his episodes he believes there is such things as a bear fish. He gets really frightened about it because he's very gullible. Spongebob Squarepants has a neighbor that really doesn't like him so sometimes he tells him things that would scare him off because he knows Spongebob would believe him. Like Spongebob Squarepants, I too am gullible at times. I have some similarities as Spongebob. I'm very optimistic and gullible just like Spongebob. Even though I don't get scared when people tell him such and such exist. I would believe that they exist but not be scared of it. When there is a problem i'm very optimistic about it just like SpongeBob is when there is a problem. For some people i don't look like i'm 18 years old. That I still have some childish ways that I do, just like Spongebob. I might seem childish and that I need to grow up, but i see myself as a gullible person and optimistic. To be honest, I don't really mind what they say. There are some similarities with Spongebob and I. As much as Spongebob is optimistic and gullible, i too like that. As for me, I like being optimistic when there is a problem. I like being gullible when it comes to supernatural things like God and miracles etc. I feel like people that are optimistic are people that are very strong. I like those types
Thus Sealed Air is situated at a critical standpoint. It can either continue to deal exclusively in the manufacture of high-end coated bubbles emphasizing performance over price, or segment the market by introducing an inferior, inexpensive uncoated bubble. To this end, this report will analyze the industry, competition, and company internal environment to assess the viability of targeting this low-end market segment. A strategic marketing plan for launching an uncoated product will follow.
"And the Flamingo was pink- a second and commensurate claim to boldness" (Price lines 30-31). American culture is very flashy and bold. By being bold and flashy, it makes Americans stand out from the crowd and be noticed. Pink was the thing to have, it showed wealth and status. "The hues were forward-looking rather than old-fashioned" (Price lines 36-37). The pink flamingos were a way for the Americans to show pride after World War II. The plastic flamingos were the Americans' way of coming back out after the Depression and the war. They are the symbol that marks the beginning of a new era.
Sweetgum (Liquidambar straciflua), also called Redgum, Sapgum, Starleaf-gum, or Bilsted, is a common bottomland species of the south where it grows biggest and is most abundant in the lower Mississippi Valley. This moderate to rapid growing tree often pioneers in old fields and logged areas in the uplands and Coastal plain and may develop in a nearly pure stand. Sweetgum is one of the most important commercial hardwoods in the southeast and the handsome hardwood is out to a great many uses, one of which is veneer for plywood. Birds, Squirrels, and chipmunks eat the small seeds. It is sometimes used as a shade tree.
If bacteria is not monitored at all, many different disease such as gingivitis and periodontitis can occur (2). The Lab Manual also stated that bacteria can enter through the oral cavity, get into the bloodstream, and can cause endocarditis in the heart tissue. Given all these possible horrible scenarios, every effort made towards lowering the amount of bacteria in our oral cavity has potential to save lives. Our research will consist of trying to answer an important question, “What substances could help prevent bacteria (pathogen) buildup in the oral cavity”. The first thinking that we had behind this came from those gum commercials you see on T.V. that say “kills bad breath and bacteria”. Well we were curious as to what chemical compound found inside gum has the capability to kill bacteria. It turns out that one of the key factors for the bacteria killing effect found in chewing gum, is known as Xylitol. Xylitol is a naturally occurring alcohol and is used as a “sugar free” substitute in many chewing gum brands
Trident gum was name after the Poseidon weapon. Poseidon was the god of the sea. He roam and control the sea with a powerful weapon. That weapon was called a trident. A trident is a three pronged spear and Poseidon was the only god to use it. Trident gum is very similar to the trident weapon. Trident is the brand name of a gum company. Trident gum comes in various flavors and it is sold in a variety of stores. In English, “Tri” mean the number three and “dent” can mean teeth. If you look at Poseidon trident, it resemble three teeth. That is why trident gum was name after Poseidon
Bubble gum was invented in 1928 by Walter Diemer, a cost analyst for the Fleer Company. Many people had tried for years to develop a gum that could be blown into bubbles, but it was Mr. Diemer, a young man who knew nothing about chemistry, who found the right combination of ingredients and created a gum that was strong enough and elastic enough to stretch when filled with air.
To begin, chewing gum is fun, but should it be allowed in school? Chewing gum can help students in many ways including helping keep one’s teeth clean and breath fresh. According to New Yorker, “Some people actually feel that chewing gum can stimulate your saliva, which can help keep the teeth clean,” With clean teeth and fresh breath, students can focus on their own work and not on how embarrassed they are. Students may just be distracted from how stinky their neighbors breath is. Chewing gum will benefit students by freshening their breath which will help them focus on their work instead of being embarrassed.
Hypothesis: If the gummy bear is put in a cup of nail polish remover overnight, then the gummy bear will decrease in size because it will disintegrate by the nail polish remover’s strong ingredients.
You might guess it’s a custom dreamed up by a modern-day, real-life Willy Wonka, but people have been chewing gum, in various forms, since ancient times. There’s evidence that some northern Europeans were chewing birch bark tar 9,000 years ago, possibly for enjoyment as well as such medicinal purposes as relieving toothaches. The ancient Maya chewed a substance called chicle, derived from the sapodilla tree, as a way to quench thirst or fight hunger, according to “Chicle: The Chewing Gum of the Americas” by Jennifer P. Mathews. The Aztecs also used chicle and even had rules about its social acceptability. Only kids and single women were allowed to chew it in public, notes Mathews. Married women and widows could chew it privately to freshen their breath, while men could chew it in secret to clean their teeth.

Initially, rubber has existed for an extensive period of time. When viewing the “early history of rubber development, [there] is evidence that rubber existed even before Columbus’ time” (Robert, E.A. 1952, p. 77). One of the earlier uses of rubber was documented in a Mexican Tribe where the natives of Mexico and West Indies played games using elastic balls (Robert, E.A. 1952, p. 77). Many scientists attempted to establish “suitable solvents for rubber since its arrival in Europe as a raw material in the late 1700s, however none had been successful” (Backer, C. 1997, p.14). Furthermore, it is relevant to say that the rubber industry was primarily established in Europe by Charles Macintosh, who was an industrial chemist in 1818 (Backer, C. 1997, p.14). Later on, the rubber industry began to devel...
