About AQUA MINT GUM, AQUA MINT
Meijer Aqua Mint Gum is a store-brand sugar-free chewing gum from Meijer, Inc., the Michigan-headquartered Midwest US supercenter chain. This is a mint-flavored pellet or stick gum in the aqua mint variety, categorized under chewing gum and mints. Sugar-free gums of this type are formulated with a combination of sugar alcohols and high-intensity artificial sweeteners in place of conventional sugar.
Gum base is the primary structural ingredient responsible for the chewable texture. The sweetener system comprises multiple sugar alcohols: sorbitol (the dominant bulking sweetener), isomalt, erythritol, xylitol, mannitol, and maltitol. These sugar alcohols provide sweetness with fewer calories than sugar and do not promote tooth decay. Aspartame and acesulfame potassium are high-intensity non-nutritive sweeteners included for additional sweetness intensity; aspartame contains phenylalanine, making this product unsuitable for individuals with phenylketonuria (PKU). Natural and artificial flavors provide the aqua mint taste. Gum arabic is a binding agent. Glycerol acts as a humectant. Titanium dioxide provides whitening of the gum shell. Talc is a filler used in the coating. Carnauba wax provides a smooth exterior surface. BHA (butylated hydroxyanisole) is a synthetic antioxidant preservative.
Per 100 grams, this gum provides 208 calories, 83.33 g of carbohydrates, 0 g of protein, and 0 g of fat. The calorie figure reflects the gum's total composition and not the typically small amount consumed per serving. The product is free from wheat, dairy, egg, soy, and tree nut allergens. PKU individuals should note the aspartame content.
