One way or another it's gonna taste like something, might as well not just be "plastic and rubber" flavored.

    As a former teacher of younger kids, that feature probably makes them 10x less likely to be forgotten/lost. (The size is "youth 10-") Agree it's kinda gross, but kids are wired differently.

    Growing up we were on a swim team and my brother would chew on his goggle straps while waiting for a race. My parents bought us some flavored goggle straps lol. I think they were blueberry flavor...

    Goggles aren't even something designed to go in your mouth like a mouth guard, but I guess they knew kids chewed on them so why not

    When I played flag football in elementary school we were required to wear a mouth guard but we didn't have these fancy things. So what we did was put pre-sweetened Kool-Aid mix in them and now it's no wonder so many of us developed bad teeth.

    Isn't it ironic?

    My retainer when I was a kid was flavored, too. Though I only had two choices. Bubblegum and medicinal grape. I opted for the grape.

    They make gloves for dentists that are flavored too. It's weird but I don't think it's uncomfortable making. To each his own I guess.

    Is this why Matt Tkachuk is always passionately chewing on his instead of using it for its intended purpose?
