Very neat! Now if only you can find the original animation models.
I used to want to swallow my Fruit Stripe gum because it was so delicious.
Yeah-- Fruit Stripe made me make these crazy "I'm soooooo happy" faces, like my kitties when I gave the catnip.
It was just tart and joooocy enough to make this pre-sexual bed-wetter just shiver...
Do they still make this?
yeah they still make fruit stripe gum
Not only do they still make Fruit Stripe gum, they still use the same characters to advertise and the same slogan "Yipes! Stripes!" Talk about a time warp.
You see their trucks all over the South.
BTW, it was my favorite gum, not only because of the flavor, but because the diagonal stripes on the gum matched the colors used on the lifting arms for the Dumbo ride at Disneyland. Details are important when you're 6 years old.
