This article is in desperate need of new information, if anyone would like to add any information to this article, it would be greatly appreciated. - HG707 19:21 22 June 2006.

where is the gum sold? Rich Farmbrough 10:04 29 June 2006 (GMT).

I second that notion, this article is HORRIBLE! We need way more information. JavaDog 02:09, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

-I found out some info and have add it to the article.--Muhand 19:46, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I really think that the part "How stride gum was heard" should be re-named. The current name just sounds really weird/akward. I would do it myself, but I can't think of the correct way to word it. 69.121.67.198 10:54, 1 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Slogan, etc.

Is "Good for you, bad for us" used anywhere else besides the one commercial? If not, it's not a slogan. I'd say the slogan is "The rediculously long lasting gum", as it's repeated many times on the web site. Also, I'm removing the wikicomment that says  from the article because the comment doesn't guarantee the validity of the information, sources do. (Especially after people edit it). If something is changed to something that is false, change it back and put your reasoning on the talk page. --ScarletSpiderDave 05:30, 2 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Free Gum

I got it in the mail today! Well, I'm doing a project called, "What Gum Lasts the Longest", and I typed in 'long lasting gum' and found Stride, and I would really like to know, do y'all think Stride lasts longest? Please help me! Thank you all for your help. ~Roselyn Thomas

Yes, stride lasts pretty long, in comparison to other gums. Most other gums kind of taste gross after a while. JavaDog 02:09, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I know this is late, but hopefully this article can shed some light on the subject: [1].

Edible Wrapper?

I'm not too sure about the validity of this claim, as I recently purchased a pack and found the wrapper to be quite inedible. Perhaps someone could give a credible reference as to this fact? Paradigm Shift 02:25, 8 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Did you eat the wrapper with the gum? I'm not sure if it works, but I remember an old brand of gum that worked in that manner.. Forgot it's name though, isn't that a shame? JavaDog 02:09, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Update: I ate a peice today, with the wrapper on, and it did work, tasted good, etc. You have to chew for a while of course. I'm adding a picture of the chewed gum. JavaDog 21:41, 14 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Ah, thanks for the evidence. I'll have to try this approach next time I buy a pack.Paradigm Shift 02:50, 18 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

So there is still not a credible source for this? coaxial 22:41, 26 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Is a personal experience and photograph not credible? Or is that "original research?" JavaDog 01:32, 27 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

This all sounds like original research and has very little to do with Stride itself. Stride is packaged very similar to other gums, and if you were to somehow (unlikely) eat the wrapper it wouldn't be unique to Stride. None the less, I do not believe it has any place in the article. Feel free to add the information back if you find a crediable source. -HumanZoom 05:02, 8 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I personally work for Cadbury Adams the company that produces Stride gum. None of our chewing gum wrappers are designed to be ingested. We hope you will toss the wrapper in a waste basket and enjoy the great flavor of our gum! That is about as credible as it gets! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.160.155.100 (talk • contribs)

Please do no add this information back unless you cite a reliable source. I've had to remove it once again. Please see WP:NOR for further information. Thanks, HumanZoom 02:55, 18 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure how it started, but somehow a lot of people think that its important to add the fact that you can or cannot eat the wrapper of Stride gum. What sets Stride apart from other gums of similar packaging to make it notable to include this fact/rumor? Kudos to user 65.160.155.100 for trying to shed some light on the non-editable status of the wrapper, but I believe what you did was original research which is not allowed by Wikipedia (see WP:NOR for more information). If I have misused this policy, please discuss it here and let me know. As of now the edit has been reverted. As of right now, I believe that it not a notable enough to include in the article. IMHO it is just a internet rumor which has gained a small amount of publicity via Wikipedia among other online sources. I realize that I have no final say on the status of this article, but I ask you discuss the matter first here before adding it to the article again.

"Innovative Ideas"

This is clearly an advertisment for Stride. No gum lasts that long. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.118.60.156 (talk) 06:07, 14 April 2007 (UTC).[reply]

Yes. This is how Stride markets its gum. But it is important to include this information in this article and the I believe the following sentence (while not followed by a source) gives a proper foil to the claim. There are various other claims on product pages throughout Wikipedia that the makers of those products claim to be true. I think if anything, innovative ideas should be changed to something else (perhaps: marketing ideas or marketing strategies), but the claim still needs to be present as it is a important marketing point of Stride gum (what sets it apart from other gums according to Stride).

SERIOUSLY!!!

This article's pic is absolutely horrible, i'm actually chewing a piece of stride gum now and i've been keeping the stride gum case in my back pocket all day and have sat on it all day, and it still looks waaaaayyy better than that disgraceful picture glamorized on the article!!!

seriously! someone should freaking chane it immidiately.
