Is gum made out of whale blubber?
The original source of chewing gum is chicle, a rubber from trees in South America. Modern chewing gums use synthetic resins or polymers, like rubber, to replace or add to chicle. These are all safe to put in your mouth. They do not come from whales.

About Chewing Gum
Known for getting stuck in hair or on the soles of shoes, chewing gum is a substance that is chewed (not swallowed or eaten) for fun or to freshen breath. Gum comes in a variety of flavors, some minty and some sweet. Some versions are primarily for blowing bubbles, which is amusing for children and adults alike.
