Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I have been buying this brand for almost a year and 1/2 and was really excited about the ingredients and was recommending it to friends and family. Prior to this I was buying Spry but was not keen on the soy in that product and found Pur as an alternative. I found out recently that a lot of the gums on the market use synthetic gum base instead of the old fashioned way using chicle or mastic (there are still some companies that use chicle as a gum base and all natural ingredients). I contacted the company when I learned this to inquire about their gum base and I was really hoping that PUR was really pure as the name led me to believe and not made from synthetic material, but unfortunately they confirmed my suspicions that I have been chewing on a synthetic all this time advising, " Our gum base is not all-natural, but it is the highest quality of synthetic gum base on the market - it is sourced from Europe and made with the highest quality which means it will never breakdown or end up in your digestive system! The only ingredients ingested from our gum, is all-natural flavors and sweeteners. The exact breakdown of our gum base is proprietary information, but we can assure you that it is made of the highest quality." I was heartbroken to hear that ☹️ and really hope they will change this. Unfortunately now I need to find an alternative gum that uses all natural ingredients. It's unfortunate that labeling requirements don’t require companies to disclose this on the product.
