Adams Sour Apple Gum is Back!! Sat, 12/24/05 12:46 PM (permalink)
Once in a while, I noticed that Adams would bring back thier Beemans, Clove and Blackjack gums, but I always missed Sour Apple.


I found some in Seattle! I have missed that gum since I was a kid. they are offering sour cherry flavor, too.

    Now, if only I could find Teaberry, I could do the Shuffle.

              How about that Choward's violet gum. Now, that's a taste.

                Is this the violet gum? I like the saying on it "after smoking or drinking!"

                  We too have had a stroke of luck! Found Sour Apple and Cherry, along with the BlackJack at my local Publix. Well, actually, I didn't find it...the lady in front of me did but I followed suit and bought 4 packs at 2/.99.

                    How about the sour orange? Man, that hit us in sixth grade like it was the greatest thing ever! I'm sure I'd dislike it now, but I would KILL for one taste just to be sure!

                      I'm not sure if the orange was available or not. These boxes of gum were just sitting at the customer service counter. You know, I thought this gum was sour until my co-worker and I traded one of my sour apple sticks for one of her Altoid Sour Apple, that stuff almost hurts!

                            I have recently seen all the Adams flavors, including the sours and the Teaberry, etc. at the Vermont Country Store. The website for their online catalog is www.vermontcountrystore.com, and they will send you regular catalogs if you request them. They have a ton of old time favorites, and sell other products as well as food. You can request something that you have been looking for, and sometimes they will find it. As an example, I was searching for Yardley's English Rose perfume, and they found it and now sell it all the time.

                            Anyway, as far the gum goes, my new catalog came today, and it stated that the flavors are only being sold as long as supplies last, so if you want some, you may want to buy it quickly!
