Falim100 Pieces Sugar Free Chewing Gum-Damla Sakizli- Jawline Chewing Gum

This gum has almost no flavor. Translated from Turkish it’s “Drop Gum” flavored. It has a resin like flavor that is subtle. This gum is a good workout to chew. It’s not ridiculously hard, but somewhere between salt water taffy and normal chewing gum. Which is what I was personally looking for and I am very satisfied.The lack of flavor is a positive. Now I don’t need to worry about the extreme peppermint flavor of my gum when drinking or eating food.I have been chewing my first piece out of the box for 3 hours now. The texture has held up well, softening up slightly as it has been worked. The flavor is still there slightly but as others have stated it just tastes like gum that lost its flavor hours ago.If you chew gum for flavor, this gum is not for you. If you chew gum to exercise your face or to keep your mouth occupied. This is 100% the product for you.This 100 piece pack should last me a month or 2 but I will be buying again.

Awesome product. I've always complained about most chewing gums for multiple reasons. Most of them are loaded with extra sugar/ingredients or the flavors are way too strong. Others breakdown too quickly and that's a big downside in my book, for I like to chew my gum for quite a few hours at a time (I find it wasteful to go through multiple pieces in a day). This gum however is just what I needed.As soon as I unwrapped the box, I could immediately smell the slight hint of "pine" that other reviewers have said they smelled too so it had me a bit worried just because of how pungent it was initially. But as soon as you start chewing a piece the taste is VERY minimal. It virtually is "tasteless" but again, very slight hint of a "pine" taste, I don't really know how else to describe it. I personally enjoy the slight hint of it, and I don't think most people would be bothered by it. So far the few pieces I've chewed have been for around 3-4+ hours at a time and I can say this gum does not break down at all which I really enjoy.So again, if you're looking for a gum that is pretty much tasteless, doesn't breakdown, and affordable to purchase in bulk, this product is for you.Update**6/15/16: still very happy with this product. In fact, I've noticed since my original review that the "pine" taste/smell I mentioned initially pretty much dissipated after using this gum for the first week. Everytime I go unwrap a new piece I don't smell it or taste it anymore! So basically I can now claim the gun is 100% tasteless and odor free. My wife still tells me breath smells like pine trees when I go to kiss her but she thinks it's a fresh smell :)

The feel of this gum is hard to describe. It has the texture and flavor intensity of a piece of gum you’ve been chewing for a long time - it’s kind of rubbery and dense with a very faint flavor. While it’s definitely not “normal” for someone used to American gum (as I am), the taste can be acquired if you want to like it.I’ve been addicted to sugar-free gum for years, and have grown more and more sensitive to sorbitol and xylitol, so I had to find another option. I didn’t want anything with sugar, but couldn’t find an artificial sweetener that agreed with my stomach. Even the “organic” varieties upset my stomach, not to mention that they’re way too expensive to chew regularly, and the flavor goes away in less time than normal gum. So Falim was the perfect solution - it’s affordable through Amazon, 0 calories, sugar free, and has no artificial sweeteners. In fact, mastic gum is supposed to be good for the teeth (unlike sugar) and good for the stomach (a stark contrast to sorbitol). It takes a little time to acquire the taste, but I was/am willing.Each piece of Falim lasts a lot longer than normal American gum because American gum is chewy and flavorful initially, which makes you want to spit it out and get a new piece when it gets rubbery and loses its flavor. With Falim, it’s rubbery and only faintly flavored from the very beginning, so spitting it out and getting a new piece won’t change anything. That may sound strange, but there’s a steadiness to Falim that’s kind of nice in comparison to the roller coaster experience of American gum.Regarding the flavors: I ordered pretty much all of the flavors - plain, mint, forest fruits, mixed fruit, and strawberry. I thought I’d prefer the mint flavor (since Trident spearmint gum is my long-time favorite), but the “mint” is not really “mint” - it is what I would think of as “plain” gum. I would describe the various flavors from an American perspective as follows:-Mint Falim= plain/unflavored/pure plastic-Plain Falim = hint of oregano-like herb (I have never had mastic gum before, so I don’t know if that herby mix is the natural flavor of mastic gum)-Forest fruits Falim = hint of Berry Burst (the flavor of Wrigley’s Extra)-Mixed fruit Falim = hint of Banana Laffy Taffy-Strawberry Falim = hint of freeze-dried strawberry flavor (including the freeze-dried aftertaste)All of the flavors are worth trying except for mint, which is just too blah. I hated the “plain” at first (it’s definitely unlike any American gum flavor), but now it’s my favorite - the others remind me of American gum enough that I find myself wanting to spit it out and get a fresh piece of full-flavored American gum. The “plain” flavor is very clearly it’s own thing so I can chew it for a long time without the same craving.Regarding the nutritional content: This was the biggest concern for me when I first purchased the gum, because I had trouble finding the label to verify that the gum lacks calories and sugar. Each individually wrapped piece (or each 5-pack when you buy the sets of 5-packs) actually has the ingredients and nutrition content printed on it, although the information is in really small font and in Turkish. I put it into Google Translate to confirm that 100g (way more than 1 piece) has 0 calories, 0g of fat, 0 carbs, and 0g of sugar.Regarding the 20 x 5-pack v. individually wrapped: The individually wrapped pieces are slightly larger than the pieces in the 5-packs. Also, since the gum expands when you chew it, the internal wrappers around each separate piece in the 5-packs are not big enough to hold your gum when you spit it out. The individual wrappers (when you buy 100 individually wrapped) are big enough to hold the gum; in fact, each individually wrapped piece is covered in 2 layers: an internal wrapper (slightly larger than that covering the pieces from the 5-pack), and an external wrapper (which is shown in the photos). This comes in handy if you want to chew 1/2 piece at a time. I only buy the individually wrapped variety now, as I much prefer that size and wrapper.

Chewing Falim is chewing real gum. Most gum you find at the stores actually contain plastic! Falim gum is thicker and a bit harder to chew. It eventually softens with enough chewing. I find that chewing at least a few pieces at a time to be a workout for my jaw muscles. While not completely flavorless, this gum's flavor is hard to identify. The box and gum itself kind of reminds me of tree pine or something herbal but tastes like nothing. I find the flavorless gum perfect as I don't find myself constantly grabbing a new piece due to the flavor running out. I can chew a few pieces for a few hours before I feel the need to get a new piece. If you're looking for a high quality, cheap gum this is it.
