Teaberry and Beemans gum -- Nov 29, 2025

My mom introduced me to Beemans gum in the 1990s. It was part of her childhood, and she bought a bulk package of the 5-stick packs. They were meant as a digestive aid, but they were notably favored by test pilots who later worked in the space program.

In early 2024, when meeting phone-friend for the first time (after 15+ years of online friendship), they gifted me some Beemans and other flavors made by the same company. Of the new variety, I enjoyed the Teaberry one most.

My dad shows he's thinking of me by getting little treats, sometimes unique trinkets. The Dunkin drink earlier today was such a balm for my spirits. And this guy was waiting for me on the kitchen table, ready to have after dinner.
