The Exact Flavor of Juicy Fruit

Hey, in the Philippines during the year 2004, a TV commercial was shown and it says that cherries, bananas and pineapples are the three main flavors of Juicy Fruit. Obin 3391 15:36, 11 November 2006 (UTC)

Ok Ive said it before and I will say it again why doesnt any body note that the flavor last 2.5 seconds I think any body can atest to that.

I believe that the exact flavor of Juicy Fruit is not actually a fruit, but actually comes from Isopentenyl acetate, a carboxylic ester. Currently, no wiki page exists describe this chemical. NatePhysics (talk) 01:15, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

The flavor is exactly like that of one variety of the Indian holy herb called Holy Basil, Ocimum tenuiflorum. The herb is used to block unusual perspiration odor associated with illness. It works. It is easy to grow. You may experience it for yourself. I do not know if Juicy Fruit uses the exact same chemical having the same properties. My Flatley (talk) 01:46, 14 April 2016 (UTC)

whats that song...

I remember vaguely a juicy fruit commercial where a bunch of campers are attacked by a bear,with this weird,fast music playing,does anyone remember it?was it the juicy fruit jingle sped up to sound differently?i know this sounds stupid,but i liked the beat and would love to hear some identification since i remember the commercial vividly.

top brands

According to american food distributors Coremark and MTC, the traditional wrigley gums are not in the top 10 products anymore. Juicy fruit, spearment, big red, doublemint. Stride, #5 and trident currently seem to occupy the top brands right now. Dentyne and Orbit have also fallen in ranking. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.121.14.132 (talk) 03:58, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Important question

I have never tried Juicy Fruit. Is is true that its gustatory sensation can bring about a kinetic relocation of oneself once inserted in one's oral cavity? Also, I came here to find info a the jingle such as the creators, idea behind it and its age. I see it goes back to at least 1981. If anyone has ever written a doctoral thesis about this subject, any illumination would be greatly appreciated.--72.1.222.80 (talk) 14:02, 15 May 2009 (UTC)

Energy

The article says each stick contains 10 calories. Are those thermal calories, or nutritional calories (kilocalories)? If they are kilocalories, then each stick has 10*1000*4.2=42000 J. --Shanedidona (talk) 05:01, 2 June 2009 (UTC)

Color of Actual Gum (Orignal sticks)

Now the stick gum is bright yellow. Who remembers in the 90s when it was beige in color? Should this be noted? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.152.253.219 (talk) 19:22, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

I remember that. I was disappointed to see it yellow. The coloring can't be very healthy. 12.10.124.189 (talk) 07:22, 9 July 2010 (UTC)

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Why is the citation in the film One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest (film) by Chief Bromden not mentioned in the article? see [1] or [2] -- 87.144.93.249 (talk) 19:11, 17 October 2009 (UTC)

I think it's because of the spoiler warning, but i think i may put it in.

It's actually because it's completely trivial. It's had no impact on popular perception of the subject. Chris Cunningham (not at work) - talk 10:05, 24 October 2009 (UTC)

That may be true, but I have come up with a couple of counterpoints;

•It does put Juicy fruit in somewhat of a historical context (even if it is just in the US). since the film was made in '75.

•The 'juicy fruit' scene, in my view, is a fairly pivotal one within the film, and may need to be represented here as well.

Television commercial

I got your reference right here. (Well, I'll leave it to someone else to google all the FCC stuff) —Wiki Wikardo 02:13, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
