Description
I remember it during the late 70's and early 80's. It was chewing gum made by the Gatorade drink people. It was bright green & tasted like Gatorade. I think it maybe also came in grape flavor. Stopped selling around 84 maybe

Gatorgum came in both green flavor and orange and was a refreshing change from the super-sweet flavors normally associated with gum of that era. Gatorgum had that classic Gatorade sub-citric acid sourness and was a blast to bite into. If you like Sour Patch Kids, you would have loved this gum.

"The gum that makes your mouth water" I believe that was the slogan

I remember going to my family's beach house in the early 90sand buying Gatorgum in an orange wrapper, I can't recall the green (I was a little one in the early 90s!). But I can remember buying it in at least 2 different occasions, so at least in south eastern North Carolina, it stuck around til then.

I remember both flavors, orange and the traditional lemon-lime. If I can recall, the flavor lasted about 2 minutes and then it was like chewing rubberbands.

Man I used to LOVE this gum. The texture was a little extra rubbery, but that was part of what made it unique. I remember lemon lime, orange, and fruit punch myself. Did fruit punch not go mainstream? I know we had it in CALI! I can't believe gatorade hasn't brought this gum back.
