Product Reviews of STAY ALERT Military Caffeine Energy Gum - CINNAMON - TRAY (24 packs 5pc) - 100mg Caffeine per pieceProduct Review: Good Gum Summary: 5 Stars
This gum works very well. The effects are very quick. However it will make you thirsty, so have some water to drink with it and another flavored piece of gum if you don't like the cinnamon flavor.
Product Review: Good Stuff Summary: 5 Stars
This is the second time I Have ordered form the stay alert group, this is a good product. The only problem is the chemical aftertaste, and thats not too bad.
Product Review: Great Caffeine Source Summary: 5 Stars
I'm the type of person who uses caffeine as a drug to stay focused. My friend, who was former military, gave me a pack of these to try. Let me just say that the military money gets results! This was fact acting, small, and cheap. It works out to about $0.25 a cup of coffee- each gum has 100mg caffeine (5 pieces per packet, 24 packs per box). This destroys any other caffeinated products I've ever tried- it beats coffee for price and ease of use. It beats jolt gum cause it has 6x the amount of caffeine jolt does. It beats energy drinks because they are so expensive and loaded with TONS of sugar. These things are extremely portable- just carry in your pocket (they were meant for military!). Great for law enforcement to have in the war bag to stay awake in the field when you are stuck on a call or stakeout. A friend who is in vet school loves these cause they have to stay alert and study so much. To be honest, you don't buy stuff like this for taste. The first minute of these things you just taste the sugar and flavoring, but after that the bitter taste of the caffeine starts to be come apparent. The taste comes out slowly at first, and never completely overpowering, but anyone chewing this just to enjoy gum, and not as a tool to stay awake, would never chose this gum over any other gum in the world for flavor. That being said, the taste isn't terrible. I've had all 5 flavors. The Cinnamon is the worst, and unless you are a fan of big red or gum like that I would avoid it (I don't like Cinnamon flavor). IMO, the Spearmint flavor tastes the best at first (only slightly better than Arctic Mint), but then the caffeine is more noticeable with Spearmint in the end than with Arctic Mint flavor. Overall, if you are going for the best overall flavor experience I chose Arctic Mint. I cannot recommend these enough.
Product Review: Great Stuff!!! Summary: 5 Stars
I keep this in my car, and at work....a great pick me up...I repeat buyer of this great gum!!!
Product Review: I found a way to get past the taste. Summary: 3 Stars
I also, found the taste when chewing this stuff enough to make me ill.
It REALLY is awful!!!
And the jolt is a little more than I prefer.
I think I found a solution that will work for me and might for some other people as well.
I got out my rose clipper and carefully cut them into pieces that are smaller and easily swallowed with a beverage.
I still feel like I do get the necessary pick me up, but without the jitters or the awful taste.
So, I ended up pleased with an item that tasted SO awful that I almost threw them away.
Works for me and I think the price for how much caffiene you get on these versus some of the other products out there is pretty good.
I didn't want to go broke staying alert.
