You can't really be serious. A mild mint flavor? The mint is just perfect. Not super strong, and kills the taste from my dinner. I understand that it's not your go to gum. But the way you explain it in this review makes it sound like a horrible gum. It's not. The flavor lasts a very long time and it's delicious. I'm sorry, but reviews that only have negative points about anything, aren't really reviews in my opinion.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12702061846602747332noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499683257701375749.post-49190644534507836472015-08-10T17:21:38.101-04:002015-08-10T17:21:38.101-04:00why does this gum turn black? it is very unsettlin...why does this gum turn black? it is very unsettling Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6499683257701375749.post-69547854517851439272014-11-28T14:36:28.452-05:002014-11-28T14:36:28.452-05:00I love my React2 (black) gum and I want it back......I love my React2 (black) gum and I want it back...NOW PLEASE.

It has a different but not a bad taste. Those white gritty bits are only noticeable if you take the gum out of your mouth and inspect it. I'd say that its a pretty good gum if you like a semi-mild minty taste. also, i cant tell if its peppermint, spearmint, of winter mint.
