Orbit is a sugar free gum made by Wrigley. It's sold in signature boxes of 14 individual pieces of gum. It's a great tasting sugar free treat that has won the American Dental Association's seal of approval because of its ability to help promote better oral health.
Orbit Gum has one of the most interesting histories of any similar product. It was originally released in 1944 during World War II as a substitute for the other Wrigley's Brands to deal with the wartime shortages and rationing. After World War II, the brand was withdrawn from the market until 1977 when it was released as Wrigley's first sugar gum. In the US, the brand was once again pulled with the introduction of Extra Sugar Gum. Finally in 2001, Orbit Gum came back to stay.
The Orbit name comes from the ingredient Sorbitol that gives it the great tasting flavor that it has. It comes in more than a dozen different flavors as diverse as bubble gum, spearmint, Raspberry mint, and Maui Melon mint. It's not surprising that it tastes amazing with so many different great flavors to choose from. No matter what you are looking for to chew, you'll find it with Orbit.
