Why Airheads Are The New Alternative to Candy?
Airheads is a fun, fruity, chewy, minty gum made by Dutch Italians, Perfetti Van Melle of Erlanger, KY. The gum is made by pouring hot liquid gum into a mold, freezing it and then shaping the mold with a fork to create its shape. They claim that the resulting gum is twice as sweet as regular gum.
Airheads are similar to gumbo, but it does not taste like gumbo. This is an inexpensive gum made from reconstituted or recycled sugarcane that is a favorite of many. You can find airheads at gumball shops, grocery stores, discount retailers and online. Each pack of airheads contains about twenty pieces, which is about the right amount to give as a gift for someone on your list. So, what's inside?
Like most gums, Airheads has two main ingredients: gum and sugar. Gum is what gives the gum its flavor, color and texture. When heated, the gum starts to expand and this creates a sugary solution. This syrup-water mixture is what gives airheads their distinctive flavor.
The remainder of the candy is the sugar syrup. This is mixed with water to make the gum water-proof. This also makes it easier to mold and shape into any shape you want. Airheads are typically covered in a pretty colorful wrapper, but there are some varieties that are covered in plain wax paper.
Many years ago, when airheads were first produced, they were considered a health hazard because they contained lead. Because of this, manufacturers immediately removed these airheads from their products. Lead is a heavy metal that is dangerous to ingest, so the removal of these candies marked the beginning of the end for airheads. Today, airheads are manufactured using modern manufacturing techniques and no longer contain lead. However, they do still contain other chemical additives.
Another reason why airheads are becoming more popular is that they're fun. Everyone likes to have a big box of gum to suck on when they want a nice relaxing morning head. In addition to that, the large variety of airheads available can appeal to any consumer. Just about anyone can find their type of airhead and start sipping on them. With gumbo being the old standby, you're sure to find a huge variety of airheads that appeal to you.
Of course, not everyone is a fan of gum. Perhaps you don't like the taste or the smell. But the fact remains that airheads are far healthier than gum. You'll find that when you put them in your mouth, your teeth and gums felt refreshed and invigorated.
There are many reasons why gum is no longer the number one alternative for sucking on candy. However, airheads have managed to shake up the market and are beginning to become the new leader in the sweet tooth world. If you haven't tried them yet, you have plenty of time to get out a box and give them a try. If you have had a bad experience with gum, airheads may be what you need. Whatever your preferences, you're sure to find the perfect airheads to satisfy your craving for something sweet. So pull out that airheads tin and discover the delight of gum free candies.
