Gum is Like Lightbulbs...and Cars...

Random thought for the day.

Gum is like lightbulbs and cars (if you believe old wives tales).

Just like people always say that companies could make a lightbulb that would never burn out or a car that would never fall apart but that they don't want to because then you'd never have to buy them again, so it is with gum.

I'm sure that the makers of gum could make a version that never ran out of taste.  But then you'd never (or rarely) have to buy gum again.
