Extra Peppermint Gum - I have a slight obsession with it for several reasons: I have this fear that I always have bad breath. I think this goes back to a friend in grade school that always had dragon breath and she was a close talker. I get hungry at my desk often. I may have just had breakfast, but 10:00am rolls around and I’m starving! I must always have something in my mouth. This started in college when I wanted to do anything buy study. Watch TV, Clean out my closet, Go grocery shopping, Eat. It was more often than not, eating. So instead of stuffing my face with candy and junk food, I started chewing gum. I now have a habit that is slightly out of control. I have named this addiction “Chain Chewing.” Meaning, I chew a piece of gum for a little while and without thinking, I unwrap another piece, spit out my current piece into the new wrapper and start chewing the new piece. Similar to chain smoking, this is what I call Chain Chewing. Is there anyone else out there like me? Shall we start a support group?
