Clean Gum

A new non-stick gum will be launched commercially on 2008. Developed by British Scientists at the University of Bristol, the said gum can be easily removed from shoes, just in case you stepped on it on sidewalks. It can be easily removed from hair, skin, and clothes as well.

The said gum has a great taste - not to be confused with a brand of coffee :) -, it is easy to remove and has the potential to be environmentally degradable.

They accomplished the "less sticky" Clean Gum by adding polymer to modify the gum's properties compared from todays chewing gums which are made from synthetic latex making today's gums resistant to weather and is strongly adhesive.
