Did you eat the gum? I have such fond memories of Topps gum from my childhood collecting days that I have been tempted to purchase a pack just to relive those memories.

Oh Gawd! If you waited too long to chew the gum it would crack in your mouth like a mosaic. At least when I was chewing it. I think that's why we have so many dentists on the forum -- they saw the future and can now afford very nice cards.

Don't eat the gum!!!!!

I learned the hard way...the old gum just sorta crumbles into powder as you chew and then into this stale tasting mush. Its not good and I had to spit it out.

Thats kind of how I remembered the gum being when the packs were new!
