Hot Dog-Flavored Bubblegum

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Ballpark Gum Tastes like Hotdogs, Peanuts and Beer to Please Fans

— January 17, 2013 — Lifestyle
Going to a baseball game usually entails not only watching the game, but also eating the tasty foods at the concession stand and Ballpark gum will help give you a taste of a night out at a game with chewing gum that tastes like peanuts and hotdogs. The obscure gum is created to taste like a true home game experience; you can start off with some peanuts before grabbing a hotdog and finish off with a delicious beer.

Ballpark gum comes in a nostalgic tin that features all three flavors, so you won't have to choose your favorite when grabbing a pack. What's best is that you can choose a piece at random and surprise your tastebuds with one of these strange flavors that will either have you ready for another piece or spitting it out immediately.
