I remeber buying three or four packs at a time and cramming them all into my mouth. <BR/><BR/>As a kid, gum was the first thing I went for when I was buying candy. I also remember Ton 'o' Gum Grape, too! Dee-licious!<BR/><BR/>It was very popular with me and my friends in 1976, Halifax, Nova Scotia.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15011467.post-51268549528469592112007-02-28T20:51:00.000-08:002007-02-28T20:51:00.000-08:00HiI saw your ton 'o' gum pic and immediately copie...Hi<BR/>I saw your ton 'o' gum pic and immediately copied it and emailed to some of friends. Man, I think I'm gonna put it on our bands myspace (myspace.com/downanddirtfarmer) by the way. How did you get the package in such mint condition? <BR/>I remember when it first came out as a huge slab and then the gum piece got smaller and smaller until they stopped selling it. And I didn't even know there was a Ton 'o' Grape Gum. Yes, this is a day of deep learning.<BR/>I've got some other cool wrappers I should send to you...a Kojak lollypop wrapper with Telly Sevalis's bald head, various old Caramilk wrappers, a liquid 4 flavours. I'd love to get a bar 6 wrapper (remember the orange one). I'm blabbing too much here but thanks for posting your pic. It's fantastic!!!<BR/>Scott Cryer<BR/>info@dirtfarmer.ca<BR/>www.dirtfarmer.caAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15011467.post-1160145602348280452006-10-06T07:40:00.000-07:002006-10-06T07:40:00.000-07:00I was just chatting with a co-worker about Ton O G...I was just chatting with a co-worker about Ton O Gum.
