The universe is both very much smaller and much larger than we tend to think. A light year is the distance travelled by light in the course of a year. Or 5.88 trillion miles. So 5.88 trillion times 65 million makes… a Lot. True. The water inside them instantly boils and expands blowing most of the tree to smithereens. This isn't in the book, I just love it as a fact. True or false: 8. Great White Sharks are more deadly than mosquitoes.

The genus has a subcosmopolitan distribution across Europe, Africa – (Southern Africa), Asia, Australia – Oceania, North America and South America. [6] [7] Its species can be found in many environments, but most grow best in wet environments and moist soils. Most chewing gum contains plastic. In fact, the same plastic materials that go into plastic bottles, glue, and rubber tyres. But True Gum is different because it is a plastic-free and palm oil free alternative. We make it with sap from gum trees, all-natural flavours, and plant-based xylitol sweeteners. True Gum is suitable for vegans because it has no animal-derived ingredients. Some mints can be propagated by seed, but growth from seed can be an unreliable method for raising mint for two reasons: mint seeds are highly variable — one might not end up with what one supposed was planted [25] — and some mint varieties are sterile. It is more effective to take and plant cuttings from the runners of healthy mints.

The most common and popular mints for commercial cultivation are peppermint ( Mentha × piperita), native spearmint ( Mentha spicata), Scotch spearmint ( Mentha x gracilis), and cornmint ( Mentha arvensis); [27] also (more recently) apple mint ( Mentha suaveolens). In common usage, other plants with fragrant leaves may be called "mint", although they are not in the mint family: Menthol from mint essential oil (40–90%) is an ingredient of many cosmetics and some perfumes. Menthol and mint essential oil are also used in aromatherapy which may have clinical use to alleviate post-surgery nausea. [33] [35] Allergic reaction [ edit ]

Mint essential oil and menthol are extensively used as flavorings in breath fresheners, drinks, antiseptic mouth rinses, toothpaste, chewing gum, desserts, and candies, such as mint (candy) and mint chocolate. The substances that give the mints their characteristic aromas and flavors are menthol (the main aroma of peppermint and Japanese peppermint) and pulegone (in pennyroyal and Corsican mint). The compound primarily responsible for the aroma and flavor of spearmint is L- carvone. False. It would vaporise and there'd be bits of legs and guts everywhere. It might make your enemy go "Ur.." but it wouldn't kill them. Although you can weaponise an insect and turn it into a killing machine in its own right.

Instead of using a traditional plastic-filled gum base, we make True Gum with chicle, a sustainable and natural ingredient coming from the sap of the Sapodilla tree. That makes True Gum a plastic-free, plant-based chewing gum. Our chicle is harvested by local “chicleros” in Central America with a sustainable technique that's been practiced for centuries that does not require cutting down trees. At the same time, using chicle supports the livelihood of the local communities.
