In America man called Adam Smith made stuff `out of rubber in a factory.He found small piece of chicle which is the sap from a gum tree. He popped it in to his mouth but it stayed whole. Adam had a bright idea he heated it up and put a mint flaviour to it.In 1872 shop keepers refused to sell this product so Adam started another company called Tootie Fruity. Tootie Fruity sold this chewing gum so now he could sell this stuff at rail way stations.
