Not to derail this too much but I did try a piece of old gum from a pack of 1980 Topps. It basically instantly turned to a not-as-sweet-asI-remember dust as soon as it got moist on my tounge. The flavor stayed in my mouth for a long time and it felt like I licked a bowl of flour instantly sucking out the moisture out of my mouth. I think the memory of it stayed longer than the actual taste but I now can say without any reservation that's I'm not going to try that ever again.
