Competition Time

24 February 2010

So it’s time we gave away some gum as a little thank you for dropping by our website from time to time. Two winners will each get sent a case* of gum and ten runners-up will get a couple of packs. All you have to do is answer this heavily loaded question…

We go on a bit about our fine English peppermint and our natural chicle but which of these ingredients (all widely used in mainstream chewing gum) do we choose not to use?

a) aspartame
b) titanium dioxide
c) polyisobutylene
d) acesulfame k
e) bovine gelatine
f) butylated hydroxytoluene and butylated hydroxyanisole
g) all of the above

Just pop your answer as a comment below and we’ll pick the winners at random next week.

*a case is 12 packs

Update (Thursday 4th March, 2010)

This competition is now closed.
The lucky winners will be announced shortly
