1 February - Bubblegum Day
It is believed that ancient Greeks found relief from stress by chewing a gum that was made from a resin. 100,000 tons of bubble gum is chewed every year all around the world.
While actually a type of chewing gum, bubble gum is specifically designed to be inflated out of the mouth as a bubble. It was invented in 1928 when Walter Diemer accidentally made a less sticky chewing gum that could be blown into bubbles. So if you want to blow bubbles, make sure you get bubble gum, not chewing gum.
Chewing gum has also been shown to reduce muscle tension and increase alertness. Chewing gum burns around 11 calories per hour. Chewing gum on an airplane will keep your ears from popping. Chewing gum makes your salivary glands produce 250% more saliva than normally, so you swallow more.
