Singapore is known internationally for a couple of things and the Chewing Gum ban is high on the list. In this short episode, Elliot and Rovik follow the rather hilarious journey of how chewing gum got banned in Singapore as well as how a certain US company managed to get some gum back on the books. You may get stuck on this one (pun intended!)

This episode covers:

  • why chewing gum was actually tolerated for a while before the iconic ban
  • how our MRT system triggered our country's leaders enough to outlaw the gum
  • what it took to bring dental and therapeutic gum back on the table
