A better sort of chewing gum, Chicza Organic Rainforest Gum is exactly what it sounds like: gum that comes from the chicle tree found in the Mayan rainforest. Produced in Mexico for the Mayan Rain Forest Co Ltd, it has no artificial sweeteners. Biodegradable and delicious, chew your way to a healthier environment! Chicza gum is made of chicle sap which is sustainably harvested from living Chicozapote trees. This natural gum base means Chicza behaves differently when compared to other chewing gum products, namely, that it is more sensitive to temperature changes. Cold temperatures cause the gum to become more brittle which can lead to the gum breaking up in the mouth when chewed. As the gum warms up during chewing it will rejoin together and form a single piece again. This is not a manufacturing defect but simply a result of using a natural gum base. Keeping Chicza stored in a warm place and warming it up prior to chewing (in your pocket for example) will result in the best chewing experience.
