You don't really see people chewing gum anymore.

Yea I loved gum right up until the recent study clearly linking microplastics in the body and chewing gum.

Really? I am not entirely surprised but did the study say how the plastic was getting in there?

Turns out the flavor crystals were just ground up spoons

I'm just gonna go ahead and believe this without further research, that's too good an explanation to let go of, lol
