CHICAGO — Your chewing gum might not lose its flavor on the bedpost overnight now that California-style high tech has joined forces with the world’s largest gum producer.
Chicago-based William Wrigley Jr. Co. announced that it will work with Advanced Polymer Systems Inc., of Redwood City, Calif., on a project to develop a chewing gum that keeps its flavor for longer.
William Piet, a Wrigley vice president, said the key is a new technology that “enables timed release of flavor oils.”
