OUR STORY
Hey! I am Malak; founder of OH MY GUM!.
I was horrified when I found out that chewing gum was made of plastic - the kind of plastic used to manufacture tyres and glue. What was more shocking was how very little awareness there is around the plastic content in regular gum.
I became fixated with the idea and was determined to create a super tasty, chic and sustainable alternative to what was out there. I quit my job in luxury fashion recruitment and spent over a year researching and developing what I thought was the best plant-based chewing gum.
I am so proud to be introducing OH MY GUM! to you lovely people in natural mint and cinnamon. I absolutely love it and I hope you do too.

What is OH MY GUM!?
OH MY GUM! is award winning super tasty, plant-based and plastic-free chewing gum made with vegan-friendly ingredients and amazing natural flavours (mint and cinnamon). Such an easy and chic eco-friendly swap!
Why is OH MY GUM! special?
Regular gum is made of plastic. Yes, plastic! The same kind of plastic used to make tyres and glue and we have been cluelessly chewing on it for years. That’s why standard gum sticks onto our streets for years : it is made of plastic so it does not break down.
OH MY GUM! is made with natural chicle (tree sap from the sapodilla tree in Mexico) and chicle is what chewing gum was originally made of. That’s why OH MY GUM! is biodegradable and planet-friendly.
OH MY GUM! is also packaged in plastic-free and recyclable bag-friendly boxes designed to minimise waste.
