Why is it that Xylitol gum sticks my fingers? I grew up chewing Wrigley's and don't remember it ever sticking like this. Is there some ingredient the folks in Chicago use that they don't use here? |

My theory is that it's to discourage you from blowing bubbles, because the gum will stick to your lips. |
