I see people in this thread complaining about fake sugar and someone mentioned chewing gum with real sugar. I'm just wondering do they sell xylitol gum in America? I see no point in chewing gum if it's not even healthy for teeth.

Yes they make them here with xylitol. Those are the ones I buy.

Yes, usually they're some sugar alcohol. Only traditional style chewing gums will use sugar.

Oh no. Gum is super not healthy for your teeth in the US.

[-] aidan@lemmy.world 2 points 8 months ago

Wrong, most gum in the US uses sugar alcohols
