Licorice flavored, soft stick. Black Jack gum was the first flavored gum in the U.S., made by Thomas Adams who first put chewing gum into the day-to-day lives of Americans. It’s still enjoyed today along with other turn-of-the-century gums – Clove, and Beemans. Comes in a pack of 5 – the texture is softer than when it was first made, but the taste is truly historic. Price per pack.
