I don’t know if its me, maybe I’m easily addicted to things, maybe certain things are just way to nice.

Pringles are a good example, once you pop, you really really can’t stop. Even after third of a can (Salt & Vinegar) when all the skin has been stripped from the roof of your mouth and every chip hurts, you have to force yourself to put the can down and grab a drink. The scary part is when you think about picking the can back up.

Chewing gum is a another, I’m fine until I have that first piece, after that im chomping it all day. Minty flavors are nice, but what really grabs me are Wrigley’s Airwaves, specifically the Cherry and Black Mint ones. The crunch of the shell with the hit of cherry combined with the menthol just …… mmmmmm!! But it gets better, the Black Mint tastes like pernod, I actually crave this stuff after a meal.

I never had a problem with gum till I tried to quit smoking and found out just how amazing combined gum+nicotine is. The pharmaceutical companies must be laughing all the way to the bank.

It’s 11am and I’ve not had any gum today, the muscles in my jaw feel stiff and I can’t bite properly. I really need to stop.

Slurm is soft drink from Futurama, and as I’m on the subject of addiction I should mention that I’ve not had a cigarette since I blogged about it - Go Me!
