Bubble Gum Day - Friday, February 6th
- Cinnamon, spearmint and peppermint are among the most popular flavors of chewing gum today.
- Why is bubble gum pink? The color of the first successful bubble gum was pink because it was the only color the inventor had left. The color "stuck" and today bubble gum is still predominantly pink.
- The largest bubble ever blown was 23 inches in diameter. The record was set July 19, 1994 by Susan Montgomery Williams of Fresno, CA. (Guinness Book of World Records 1998)
Did you know that North American kids spend approximately half a billion dollars on bubble gum every year?
