Trident Sweet Kicks Sugar Free Gum

I'm not really a fan of chewing gum...which I suppose is not a great start to a review about gum! I don't dislike it but it just seems like I'm chewing for no reason and more often than not, it makes me feel hungry. And when other people make horrible clacking sounds whilst chomping on gum it drives me mad! In recent months I've tried some more unusual gum flavours in the form of Trident Splash. Strawberry and Lime, Apple and Apricot...something a bit different and I really like them. Now I've discovered Trident Sweet Kicks! The green and brown packaging caught my eye as I was waiting at a supermarket check out. It looks quite different to the other ...  Read the complete review

A friend recommended this to me, and although I don't usually chew gum, when I heard it was chocolate flavour I had to give it a try. The outer cardboard packaging is pretty eyecatching and the gum itself comes in little white rectangular pieces inside a plastic and foil inner. You pop the pieces out in much the same way as a paracetamol or vitamin. The gum itself does taste chocolatey, but that only lasts for about a minute, and then it's really more minty from there on in. Still, it's pretty tasty, and if you need a chocolate kick without the calories, then this is for you. It has a hard outer shell and a soft inner part, so it's quite satisfying to chew on ...  Read the complete review

Currently B & M have started selling this along side the Lemon flavoured Trident gum, also at the price of 5p in what appears to be a desperate attempt at getting rid of them for as little as possible. After being incredibly impressed with the Lemon one I decided it was only fair to try this one too and at 5p what was there to lose? The flavour is officially "Mint Chocolate", though I've decided I'm going to re-dub them "After 8 Flavour" (after the chocolates of the same name) just because it seems a better name. Mint Chocolate is something we've probably all had at some point through something like Poppets, Matchsticks, Mint Aero, After Dinner ...  Read the complete review

On a recent visit to a new bargain shop, I saw this product on special offer at the till 10p per packet.........so I got me a few packets. The sweet kicks version of the ever popular Trident chewing gum is the sugar free part of the range, and as such I wasn't expecting too much since I have found that products advertised as sugar free have a funny kind of sweet taste to them not the normal kind of sweet. There are nine pieces of gum in each pack and each piece is perhaps half an inch wide by just short of three quarters of an inch long, which is of course in old money. Lets just say each piece is 1cm by 1.5cm and we won't be far short. They are about a ...  Read the complete review

As I write this review, I hold in my hand, a packet of nine of these and am yet to try them, so you're going to get a live review as I chew it. :) Looking at the box, it is brown and green with the shape of green lips in the centre and swirls around it. The brand, Trident, is in bold black letters and above it says that the gum is sugar free which is always a plus. It says that they are new and that there are nine inside. They are chocolate and mint flavour which doesn't sound too appealing for a chewing gum, I prefer minty ones, but it has to be done. The box is quite small, about 2.5" long and 2" wide and about half an inch thick so they fit into ...  Read the complete review
