|
|
| Is it true that chewing gum is popular in Russia? Was it true that it was banned in Soviet Union? I would love to know more about your experience there or any stories you have about the first time you chewed gum for a book that I am writing about chewing gum. Thanks! |

| I've seen chewing gum listed under the catagory 'contraceptives' on a cafe menu in an Eastern European country. |

I can see why. It is difficult to get in the mood when someone is chewing gum..
Very interesting, Gomer. |

| I wondered why 'contraceptives' would even be listed on a cafe menu, but I guess it was for the cafe customers convenience. Chewing gum listed under condoms, contraceptive catagory. Make your own joke. |
