Scott having never gone to summer camp is the biggest surprise of the video. He gives off mad camp counselor vibes to me

Watching a grown man chew gum for 36 minutes (and enjoying it) is a testament to just how likable Scott and his family are.

Scott: I’m not really a gum guy. Also Scott: *has an encyclopedic memory of every gum commercial ever*

Dentist here- sugar free gum can help prevent cavities because it stimulates saliva production. In addition to “washing the gunk” out, our saliva is slightly basic in pH which oral bacteria don’t like

First toilet paper, now gum: scott is a journalistic icon

I love that, whenever Jaden’s in the background, your eyes clearly want to look back and check for a reaction/response from her. Until she just joins the video 😂 clearly so much stinkin love between y’all 🥹

As a person with misophonia - you actually did an EXCELLENT job of NOT having horrific triggering chewing sounds constantly! I'm very impressed.

Scott is out here pioneering the decade’s greatest exposing franchise: - Toilet Paper - Pillows - Gum I’m already getting hyped for the long awaited sequels: - Chairs - Chips - Soft drinks

5 gum was the gum everybody was dealing in middle school. It was mostly for the wrapper because if you peeled off the emerald part of the gum wrapper perfectly without ripping it, it had the static electricity needed to perfectly stick to our binders. So everybody would cover their binders in their favorite color of 5 gum. And it was always impressive when you found someone who had a binder completely filled without a single ripped wrapper. Because the wrappers were so fragile, it was almost a sign of status to be able to have that many gum wrappers perfectly overlaying your binder lol

Jaden taking care of the baby in the background while he eats gum in front of a camera feels normal when it’s a Scott Cramer video.

Scott: “sorry if we’re whispering there’s a baby” *Immediately followed by the most dad cough of all time*

"it's like chewing on flesh, and i like it" was definitely something i did NOT expect to hear today

Before the chapstick industry???

Scott exudes so much dad energy that with Jaiden walking around in the background with Corbin I feel like I'm sitting at the dinner table across from my dad listening to him rant about gum lol

Jaden just being a mom in the background is so wholesome I’m so happy for them 🥲

One scary thing about the random gum machines at the mall is that you don’t know if that gum has been in there since the 80s

If no one was convinced that Scott isn't much of a gum guy, thinking 3 minutes is a long time gave it away lol

Here's a little tidbit Scott - Excess consumption of sugar free gum has a laxative effect so I hope you enjoyed the afternoon! 😅

Fun fact, on many gum packets you can find the ADA Seal of Acceptance. You can also look for gum that contains xylitol. The bacteria in your mouth eats the xylitol, but it does not get anything useful from it. Essentially it starves the bacteria. It it not a good replacement for brushing, but it can be helpful after eating. You should still keep flossing and brushing

The fold down on the gum pack is actually wild. It's perforated, so you finish the bottom deck first, tear it off, and you can just close it down on the only layer remaining. Nice, compact, and an intelligent design. Man, sounds complicated AF typing it all out, and I haven't finished the video yet so maybe you figured it out, so you know, good job if you did. Proud of you buddy. Love the videos, enjoy your day!

So fun fact, because Trident is sugar free, it's less likely to get stuck in braces, so when I got braces in middle school, it was the only gum I was allowed to have 🥲 I was in softball and the coach wanted us all chewing gum to help with our pace or something like that? He always kept a pack of orange Trident for me. Ngl I was jealous of all the other kids chewing on Big League Chew, but I still carry around and chew on some orange Trident gum as an adult lol I'm nostalgic for it

Scott and Jaden just blowing bubbles for awhile is the type of thing every kid thinks their parents do when they go to sleep.

Fun fact: if you ever get gum stuck in your hair or on a fabric you can easily remove it by applying an ice cube to it. No idea why it works, might make the gum brittle or something, just know it does lol

Bubble tape was such an absolute experience to buy. I’d often get it if my mom let us pick out a candy in line. Man I ate through that entire thing in a couple hours

When I was a kid, I went to this religious church camp type thing… I was too young to fully remember what it was. It wasn’t an overnight thing I dont think. Regardless, on the bus ride home, we did a bubble blowing contest. They had a whole bucket of the original Dubble Bubble gum. I think the only rule was that we had one try to blow the biggest bubble. We could take as many pieces as we wanted, and by the time it got to my turn, I had discovered that the kids who thought that grabbing a handful of pieces would make their bubble bigger always did way worse. But the kids that only grabbed a single piece didn’t have a lot to work with. So I opted for 2 pieces, and, not to brag. But I beat everyone on that bus. And my prize was that I could take the rest of the gum home in the bucket that it came in. And that was the best prize ever to a 6 year old. I kept that bucket for a long time after I had finished all the gum in about an hour lol but I didn’t even remember anything about this event until I watched this video. You unlocked a memory. Which is crazy because I had that bucket for SO LONG. I probably had it for a few years following this event. I kept toys in it, blocks, crayons, Nintendo cartridges. I wore it as a hat for playtime. It was such a huge part of my childhood, it’s kind of unbelievable that I forgot about it

I love seeing Jaden just living her life and being an amazing mom in the background while dad does his super cool thing.

I do have to say I am a bit disapointed that the extra mint chocolate chip was not included in the fun gum. It does seem like an abomination of a flavor but I was obsessed with it in middle school for some reason

I have an aversion to hearing people chew, but I didn’t have any issues in this video. Whatever audio setup you’ve got going on, it’s working! Very fun video. And I definitely remember the lint licker commercial! There was a time in my life that that commercial lived rent-free in my head. 😂

Me: Scott never went to camp? He seems like the kind of guy who would spent all summer at camp. My husband: Well to be fair, North Dakota basically is camp.

As someone who is allergic to mint/menthol this video was like watching someone enjoyably rank different brands of rat poison lol very good vid tho 😄

The little one just staring Scott over their shoulder while "helping" Jaden with chores is so cute.

The ending "Fun gum" segment made me feel like it was 7:30PM on a Wednesday after school and my parents were watching Unwrapped on Food Network and I was kinda also watching it from the dining room table. Thanks for the feeling Scott.

scott is always doing the weirdest videos but im here for it

Scott not knowing that his mom chews 5 gum but Jaden knowing that she chews it on airplanes is hilarious to me for some reason EDIT: After seeing Jaden's "Hey Guy" sweatshirt I like to think that Scott and Jaden are best friends with Drew and Amanda

As a hardcore chewing gum enthusiast, I will say that last time I made a spreadsheet cataloging my experience with every gum at the commons market at the dorms I was in, trident came out on top in the spearmint rankings, and trident spearmint was on top overall. Trident came out on top in the overall brand rankings as well. Wrigley's Wrigley brand was on the bottom. Wrigley needs to lose its choke hold on the gum industry it's not even that good at gum.

the "rating category of products" type of videos are always great, keep em coming

The third one of the trilogy of Scott telling us whats the best of something we need everyday. Hope it becomes a saga

It’s so nice of Jaden, and that adorable baby to let Scott have some screen time

As an Eagle Scout, I confirm that the bazooka bubblegum song was sung widely in camps

I’m so glad you included fruit stripe!! I thought you had missed it. That stuff is great until the flavor disappears in about 15 seconds 😂

Scott is the only person that can make watching a person chew gum for 30 minutes entertaining

As a junior investigator who spent her allowance looking into the bubble-blowing potential of common gum brands, the answer is old formula green mint Stride and green mint Icebreaker cubes.

your family is so cute. it's so charming seeing Jaden and the baby pop in and out throughout the first part of the video, it was such a nice vibe

I collected the bubba tape containers and played with them because we couldnt afford other toys. They hold a special place in my heart.

i loved everything about the bubblegum section. the pink aesthetic, jaiden’s (jaden?) perfect vibes, the bubblegum songs. perfection

I like that he and his wife having a kid is just like a little Easter egg that is hidden so well in the background that nobody noticed.

Loving the drew gooden merch ^^ so nice to see how supportive and close the commentary community is

I love that Scott does just the most random yet wholesome and entertaining videos in the commentary community. 😊😊

Watching Scott’s videos is kind of like hanging out with your super cool, super chill older brother. It’s insanely comforting

As somebody with that aversion to listening to people chew, bless you (or whoever edits your videos) for doing such an amazing job editing out a majority of the chewing and general mouth noises out :)

I don't think we talk enough about how Scott has built an amazing community of super loyal fans by making super fun, original content. He also hasnt gotten a big head. He us just sitting down , talking to his friends about a topic he found interesting.

as someone who is allergic to most artificial sweeteners, including aspartame, sorbitol, and xylitol, this is the closest I will ever get to trying all these gums.

You unlocked a very old memory for me of my family owning a full sized gum ball machine that was bigger than me when I was a child and we had to use quarters to get the candy out.

ALWAYS wanted to bite the side of the roll of Bubble Tape as a kid. That gum turns into liquid (or at least it did in the 90s) pretty quickly and scarred me though so.

Awesome video scott, I really loved how you framed and shot each section. They all had their distinct colors and personalities and it really supported they whole vibe you were going for. Idk thought that was cool

For me it's the way you bought value packs for most of them and have like a lifetime supply of gum now based on the amount you actually chew it. 😂

Scott doing this just at his kitchen table with stuff going on in the background, is so entertaining.

Scott has upgraded from 10 min videos to 30 min videos and I feel grateful

The absolutely fun chemistry between Scott and Jaden on the bubble blowing segment melted my heart. 🥰 You can see how much they enjoy each other's company and I love to watch them together.

my siblings and I LOVED juicy fruit gum as kids but we’d rarely get it because we’d go through a pack so quickly because the flavor was gone so quickly so our parents didn’t like to buy it for us since we’d almost immediately ask for more

I always love it when Scott brings out the projector. It's hard to explain, but it gives me great joy lol

This is a smart thing for him to review while he’s adjusting to being a dad. Because he’s probably going to grocery store all the time anyways ❤

I love this series of just rating random mundane things. Keep it up man

I love your vibe so much. It feels like being a fan of commentary channels means having to consume a LOT of negativity, but your gum, toilet paper, and small town festival reviews are such a breath of fresh air

Great vid Scott! Also, after consulting my mother, that rhyme about Bazooka bubble gum is WAYYY older than the song you showed. My guess is they made a song based off of the rhyme, rather than the reverse. It goes: My mother gave me a nickel, she told me to buy a pickle, but I didn’t buy a pickle, Instead I bought bubble gum. Baroom-baroomba bubble gum, Baroom-baroomba bubble gum!

Akin to the song being made for the commercial trivia you were telling everyone, as a kid I told my dance instructor that every single song ever had been made for a movie.

Okay, but new, pure gold side channel idea. You and wifey trying and ranking different foods/snacks against each other. I say this because I could have watched you two try an endless amount of other gums lol. That's just some solid bantz, and good times right there.

Yes, we all had that grandma with the werthers in a bowl, but did anyone else have a grandma with lots of Trident gum in her car. Specifically the tropical twist flavour.

I like just seeing the fam live in the background. It’s just so freaking normal and I love it

i can't put into words of how much i love your videos scott, it's fun, it's entertaining, and it's just feels nice...keep doing what're doing scott. love what you made always :)

One possible bonus for the ice cube is that if the main packaging is recyclable, the label can be easily removed and thrown out (labels are not recyclable! Throw out your labels from any beverage bottle too!). Downside though is it seems like a lot of packaging.

i could watch scott do or talk about absolutely anything he just makes everything interesting

These are my favourite types of videos, answering questions I never knew I needed answering. Truly some of the greatest investigative journalism. Love the chemistry on camera with you and the family too

You should do a part 1.5 reacting to and diving deep into the commercials off the different gums!

feel like its not appreciated enough how color coded scott makes his videos sometimes!! something in my little baby brain is so mesmerized by the bubble gum segment being casted in all different (but still complimentary) shades of pink.

this tier list styled video, especially the spearmint section, is personally useful to me. i will go chew some gum and think about the deteriorating state of the world while rocking back and forth against my wall. Thanks Scott!

Seeing your adorable family there with you was so sweet. 💗 Big Red and Doublemint are my favorite gums, and your assessment of both of them was very informed. Eta: And Juicy Fruit of course, it is so good.

Your videos are always so fun to watch! P.S. you are absolutely rocking the pink shirts!

Am I the only one that had memories unlocked because of this video? My main memory was the trident layers, going to the gas station when I was really little and grabbing a pack to enjoy. As well as my brother guessing of gumballs from the gumball machine and always getting it right.

wow great video. im not much of a gum guy but this video has helped me save 100's in dental cleaning.

I sooo love the way you used a projector in this!

Glad the baby is doing well man! Nice to see you back at it

i love when Jaden gets in on the wacky antics, shes a delight

The dad energy and wholesome vibes of this video lasted longer than any of the gums.

I hope this gets a part 2 ❤

Thanks for getting that bazooka bubble gum song stuck in my head. I can confirm I only ever heard that song in summer camp, and this video.

I needed the wholesomeness of a Scott video in my life today. Thank you. ❣️

I remember I had a fear of gum after watching Charlie and the Chocolate Factory when I was a kid. Then in 5th Grade this actually happened at my school at the time our 5th Grade Teacher had a Science Experiment where we were allowed to chew gum for Science! The Principal allowed it to for one time. The Mid 2000s was a great time!

Love the video! you should have added a smell taste portion like take a shot of vodka and see what hides your breathe the best

I absolutely love the background casual Jaden/baby combo. The best.

My 11th grade English teacher asked me for gum every day. When I got a high grade on a quiz, I’d give her gum, when I did poorly, I told her I was out. I have no control group to compare it to but I’d like to think I graduated 11th grade all thanks to Trident Layers and some mind games

Of COURSE I remember the Cootie Queen/Lint Licker gum commercial, who could possibly forget it? That actress deserved to be famous. I hope she went on to a huge career.

Another hard hitting article from an important investigative reporter, doing the rough work out in the field

18:42 You just brought me back to Summer Camp, on the way to the pool on Fridays we'd take a bus. The Bazooka BubbleGum rap was one of the things we did together next to the Spongebob theme and Baby Shark.

Aww baby Cramer is such a cutie~ Edit: Also does anyone else sneeze after eating gum? Or is that just me?

Anybody remember "Ouch" Bubble Gum?? The ones that came in a tin and looked like Band-Aids?? I LOVED that stuff!! That, and Bubble Jug!!

speaking of fun gum, extra used to have gum that was flavored like various desserts, they were pretty good. i think my favorite was either mint chocolate or apple pie

We always had extra gum in our household and I always thought of the ice cubes or anything in a tub as a special type we’d get in our Christmas stockings

Watching the two of them doing random shit like this together is so much fun.
