the allure of stripes

“yikes, stripes...Fruit Stripe Gum... the yummy fruity one... a pocket full of fun”… I’m the only one that thinks of this jingle when the word “stripes” is spoken?! More than likely I am, but that’s okay. I loved that gum growing up! The product proudly holds claim that it is the only gum with painted-on stripes. Completely notorious for its strong but fleeting flavor. Maybe it was my childhood of stuffing my face with Fruit Stripe Gum that triggered my current obsession with stripes. Whatever it was, or is, stripes are fantastic just see for yourself…
