“While Stride(r) gum is designed to be chewed for a ridiculously long time, our gum wrappers are not. All of our gum wrappers are made with materials that comply with FDA regulations for food contact materials; however, none of our chewing gum wrappers are designed to be ingested. While there’s nothing toxic in them, gum wrappers aren’t intended for ingestion and gum wrappers should not be eaten. Should you have any questions or concerns about your children ingesting gum wrappers, please contact your doctor or other health care professional.”

“Stride Gum wikipedia page says the wrappers are made of rice paper and can be eaten.”

no its not true, i guess that you could eat the wrapper if you really wanted to but the wrapper is not made of rice paper and so it would be just like eating regular paper along with your gum.

yes you can. I just tried it….Its weird if the paper gets loose with the gum though. The paper dissolves with the gum in ur mouth…i don’t know if it’s good for you or not but o well.

I don’t know if it’s true, but someone said the same thing years ago regarding Icebreaker Gum.

I think if you’re too lazy to take the wrapper off then you just don’t need to be chewing gum.

My answer wasn’t meant to be bitchy, I hope you didn’t take it that way 😡 I was just saying, you “can” eat a lot of things…not everything is good for you though. =)

yeah, it’s true because it’s made out of rice paper. but i only prefer to do it sometimes, because it makes the gum lose flavor faster and/or make it taste like paper….. <3333
