gum
“And the chewy part? Gum arabic, a sap that comes from acacia trees, is probably there in small quantities. Perhaps some wax as well. But most of it will be labeled vaguely as “gum base.” That usually includes styrene-butadiene rubber, polyethylene, and polyvinyl acetate—synthetic polymers that show up in car tires, plastic shopping bags, and school glue.”
