ABSTRACT:
A chewable chewing gum base is provided which is substantially calorie-free, does not decrease in viscosity upon chewing inasmuch as it is essentially free of water-solubles, and includes gum base containing high levels of inert fillers, such as calcium carbonate or talc in amounts of at least about 50% by weight, softeners, such as lecithin, synthetic non-caloric sweeteners, such as aspartame or cyclamates, and flavors. The chewable gum base includes at least about 10% air voids entrapped in the gum base matrix which, upon chewing, become filled with moisture causing a dramatic increase in cud volume.
