Does anyone remember that gum from your childhood? Bubbleyum's watermelon. I want something similar, and I can't decide between the four different options. There's the obvious watermelon gum which might work perfectly, but Watermelon Too might be even closer. The original Watermelon flavor supposedly tastes like a jolly rancher, which is great on its own, but probably a tad too tart/sweet for this particular idea I want. New Watermelon sounds like it tastes like the real fruit so I am not sure that would be right for me. Anyone have a good suggestion?

The regular watermelon is like watermelon bubalicious/jolly rancher. It's not tart at all to my tastes.
New watermelon is like the green everlasting gobstoppers watermelon and is a bit more tart. I believe watermelon too is a combination of both. I haven't tried watermelon gum, I'm sure it's tasty though! Good luck!

I've tried the watermelon gum and the strawberry gum from Ms. T. In my personal opinion, the strawberry gum is a spot on match to strawberry bubblelicious bubble gum. The watermelon gum, not so much (when compared to the taste of watermelon bubblelicious bubble gum). Both are good, but I like Ms. T's strawberry gum far better than her watermellon gum.

If you are into trying gum flavors, another exact match is the Fruity juice gum from Ms. T. It's a spot on match to Wrigleys Juicy Fruit gum.

Just my 2 cents.
