The pack containing eight gum pieces would be made available by next month in convenience stores and food and drug retailers. Each pack is priced at $2.99, which is higher than most gums but cheaper compared to energy drinks.
Each gum is equivalent to half a cup of coffee containing 40 milligrams of caffeine and would be available in two flavors, mint and fruit. In order to keep it away from easy reach of children, the manufacturers have requested the retailers to place it among other energy drinks rather than among gums.
According to the manufacturers, the bitter taste along with the high price would make it unappealing to children and teens.
