Some minor corrections. Antonio López de Santa Anna was president of Mexico not once but eleven times and he didn't spend the rest of his life in exile, the government of Lerdo de Tejada granted him amnesty. He died in Mexico at the age of 82
@@MrStumpson igorico's statements are good corrections. If you were exiled, then granted amnesty, and died in the country you were originally exiled from, that sounds a lot different than being exiled from said country. In the video, it was implied that Antonio López de Santa Anna died exiled, which he didn't. So they are good corrections. igorico is not saying that the video is all wrong, just that there could have been added information that would clear up the life of an important figure in the video.
Interestingly, Santa Anna's wooden leg was stolen from a museum in 1998 by a decorated war hero by the name of Cotton Hill (now deceased). He turned it over to the Mexican government in exchange for a driver's license. He also killed fiddy men.
Just found Beemans, black jack, and clove in a local candy store, as well as "Teaberry" from the same brand. Bought them all. Copyright sticker says 2018 on 2, and 2023 on another. Last doesn't have a date at all. Hope they're good 😬
I got introduced to Beeman's when I was a kid in the 1950s, and before I retired in 2009 I worked as a charter bus driver, so I ate in a lot of restaurants including Cracker Barrel. That was where I found that they still sell Blackjack and Beeman's chewing gum. I'm not sure but I think they still do.
I just discovered this channel in the last couple of months. It has quickly become one of my favorites. I predict that it will have at least 500,000 in a further 2 years.
Gilles, that pack of Beemans you gave me lasted about 2 months until curiosity got the better of me. I now have one stick left for the display case but it was worth it! Lol
I loved Beeman's as a kid (Of course in those days I only "flew" an AMF Roadmaster!) Another "old school" gum was Clark's "Teaberry" (Same company as the Clark Bar and Zagnut candy bars) I'm from Pittsburgh, So Teaberry gum was EVERYWHERE here. I chewed plenty of both in "my day" 👍😊👍
I was always a Black Jack fan! Seems that the flavor lasted longer and my siblings hated licorice! No sharing! I also chewed my way through a good wad of Teaberry, Clove, Beeman, FruitStripe, Bazooka, and Pal……….
I remember this trio being sold in my childhood, post 85 and pre 2004. My grandpa loved blackjack and clove. Always wondered why the three were sold together!
Saw these three gums in WinCo a few months back; had never seen them before in my life. I bought all three and like them all!! Didn't know that Chiclets were one of the original chewing gums!! Very cool.
You forgot about Teaberry. While not owned by the same people who own the other three it is often bundled with them. It's wintergreen flavored like Beemans (It has no apostrophe on the package.).
Thanks for covering the topic. I was chewing some black jack and thought to myself there has to be a video on TH-cam that covers the company. You did an excellent job.
I love Beemans, the only problem is that the flavor doesn't last very long. Also, 2 years later, you are way beyond 1000 subscribers! Keep it up, I'm fairly new to your channel and enjoying your content.
6:11 - In The Right Stuff, I always thought Chuck was asking the other guy if he had a demon (assuming that must have been a nickname for chewing gum). Now I know it was Beeman.
You solved the mystery of how come Beemans, Clove, and Black Jack were sold intermittently. I have been wondering. When they showed up every 3-5 years, I thought it was like some government conspiracy but always enjoyed all 3 and wondered why they always appeared, when they appeared, together. And I had no idea there was a thing called, "chickle".
You don't breathe pure oxygen in a pressurized aircraft unless you're breathing from a mask. The air inside the cabin of a pressurized aircraft is the same stuff outside the plane just pressurized to make it denser. Its definitely dryer though. It usually goes through a few condensers and a set of air water separators before it reaches the cabin.
HOT SHOTS! I remember watching Part Deux as a kid, and a coupla the scenes have stuck with me (like the team encountering a waist-high fence in the jungle, trying to open the gate and saying, "DAMN, it's locked from the inside!")
In my early childhood (the 1960s), chewing gum was touted as a remedy for air sickness, and, by extension, for seasickness and car sickness. It didn’t exactly work, but it gave you something else to think about besides how queasy you felt. I don’t remember Beeman’s or any other brand being mentioned for this; it was just “gum.” I also remember Bob Dylan singing “Don’t wanna be a bum, you better chew gum,” in “Subterranean Homesick Blues.” I don’t really know what chewing gum has to do with respectability, but that’s how Bob sang itZ
I also enjoy those three brands of gum. However at a local apple farm/cider mill they had all three but at over $1 a pack! I don’t like them that much, but I remember when gum was 5 cents a pack.
I LOVE Beemans clove gum. I've always loved anything Clove flavored, and when I quit smoking (specifically Djarums), I switched to Beemans clove gum instead. I mostly enjoy both the flavor and the amusing eugenol based numbing effect.
@@AldoSchmedack It's easy to find the ones that are legal to import (and taste like crap) but I've had a heck of a time finding the ones that are illegal to import.
I don't mind clove flavour in general, but I did kind of fall in love with Indonesian Clove cigarettes. I was holidaying with my family over there, took myself on a morning walk into the non tourist direction. Ran into a few labourer type blokes smoking something interesting on their morning break, brewing up tea in a little shack near where they were working. so I stopped to ask what they were smoking. Except I had no Indonesian and they had no English. Nevertheless, we managed to communicate. they poured me a brew and we tried to chat. whelp, they were the fattest cigarettes ive ever smoked, an probably the most potent. a good centimetre thick and at least 15 cm long. I offered them a bunch of my malbroughs in exchange, no good for them. the local currency, nah, their fine, no payment necessary, its a cup of tea and a smoke. but they were very interested in my Aussie coins. I got the impression that one blokes son or nephew or something was a bit of a collector, as he was really happy. and thats how I discovered clove cigarettes. drinking workers tea (although not TEA tea, herbs in hot water, was pretty tasty tho) in a tin shed with barley a shared word. But ive been on plenty of construction sites, where tools down, kettle on, smoke em if you got em is a definite thing. Im on smoko - the dune rats is a perfect song for this. Nice to see such things transcend language n cultural barriers, sit down for a cuppa and a smoke, whoever you are. and that cigarette lasted a good half hour. Kretek, there is ONE brand you can get in Australia, because we have very strict tobacco laws, and pretty much nobody can be bothered to conform with them. hope my Indonesian buddies are doing well
In Canada, it's a boutique brand (believe it or not) and when I manage to get a pack of either Beeman's, Cloves or Blackjack, it's close to $3 CDN ($2.20 USD) a pack for 5 sticks and you'll never find it in a dollar store.
Black jack is my favorite gum, so whenever I happen across it I usually just buy the whole display box, especially if they have an unopened one in the back.
..when I was stationed in Germany in the early 70s they had a drink called Mexicola..it was also known as 'kalten kaffe' or 'spaetze'...it was basically Coke mixed with Fanta...for years after I came home I put orange soda inmy coke..
Chicle, the (original) base material for chewing gum, is pronounced CHEEK-lay, not “chickle.” People in Mexico have chewed it since pre-Hispanic times.
There was an Adams gum company at one time. I believe it was acquired in the mid 1970s. Adams gum had ice cream flavored gums, chocolate, strawberry, and my favorite, vanilla.
Although only a footnote in the video, I’ve noticed that reporting surrounding Pepsi’s “lack” of pepsin content seems a bit flimsy, and Wikipedia even claims the lack of pepsin as a fact. Even though in ads from the late 1910s Pepsi-Cola advertised itself as containing something along the lines of a “pure concentration of pepsin”. I can’t remember the exact verbiage used but for at least twenty years after the drink’s introduction, pepsin was still a key selling point.
I don't know; I spent 47 years flying professionally and don't chew gum. As for the Movie "The Right Stuff," it's a good one. Best to watch it on the Big Screen. The best quote was: "I, for one, am not going to sleep by the light of a Communist Moon." LBJ. General Charles E. "Chuck" Yeager has passed on, like most of his generation. It was a brief moment where a fellow like Yeager would even be considered for flight training, let alone go on to flag rank. One of the reasons he was not picked for NASA was his lack of college education, among other things.
as a kid (I won't say when that was. you can do the math with the info provided in this video), Beeman's was my fav. also, in 2 years, this channel has increased its subs by a factor os 100...cool.
Santa Ana was exiled to Staten Island, not Long Island. I learnt this in Spanish class on Staten Island maybe 60 years ago. Otherwise, this was a nifty bit of time travel for me. Thanks!
I got some to try , its different , not very soft. Bomgaars Stores have it and other older hard candies such as whorehound , cinnamon , cherry , and other past goodies.
I remember being a big fan of those old fashioned gums when they showed up in stores when I was a kid. I'm remembering it being the late 80s, but I tried clove and blackjack first. I recently got a pack of each of the three, but the beemans back then tasted much better than I think it does now. Have they destroyed all of our taste buds with "EXTREME" flavored foods?
My first real book was "The Right Stuff". Before I was forced to read kids books and hated it. It took me weeks to read a few pages. I read Tom Wolf in two nights.
Sooo... Who doesn't want to chew a big mouth full of black liquorice, cloves, or - the always delightful - pig's digestive enzymes! So happy spearmint came along lol
According to the New Oxford American Dictionary, Gilles is correct, but “chicle”, being derived from Nahuatl, should sound more like “chee-clay”. After all, we only pronounce it like “Chipot-el” when we’re joking, right?
889 people: "I wish there was a general interest version of Forgotten Weapons..."
Gilles: "I'm on it."
exactly how i feel, hit the nail on the head there
If you close your eyes, it'd be hard to tell the two apart :)
"HI, I'm Ian with Our Own Devices, and today we are looking at this lovely example of Beemans's gum."
-Ian probably
The problem with the modern Beeman's gum is that the flavor only last about 10 seconds, then it's like chewing on an earplug.
You make me want to chew on an earplug
That's how it's always been lol
In my experience the only gum flavours that don’t last like 10 seconds are extra strong mint
In the US you can still find Beeman's, Black Jack, and Clove brand gum at Cracker Barrel and Joann's Fabric.
Great coverage of Beeman's and aviation. I used it for years flying unpressurized aircraft as it helped keep the inner ear and sinuses clear. The flavor of the gum helped to block the smell of the chemicals used to spray (crop dust) the fields.

If you're granted amnesty somewhere, it sounds like you're exiled from where you've left.

Teaberry was my favorite Clark brand gum. Can’t find it anywhere anymore. Sometimes Cracker Barrel will have Beemans tho.
As a kid I remember the unique dispensers that these gums were sold from in local shops.
Were they coin operated or dispensers for the purpose of displaying the product
Black jack got brought back from the dead lol. Gave up a bit of flavor for it to last longer than it used to be. Wish they'd bring back teaberry lol

I liked Fantan gum as a kid in the 1960's. It was like chewing perfume.
Adams also marked "fruit stripe gum" later, when l was a kid(63 now). It's spokesmodel was a multicolored cartoon zebra. Way better than juicy fruit.
Beeman was my dad's favorite sixty years ago. It's made in Morocco now, of all places.

my small local hole in the wall corner store sellls both beeman & clove & both chewed together are fantastic....
Good as always AND I am very pleased that you are going to report on the science of "The Right Stuff".
I acquired the troika of gums you display, and when I did some Teaberry gum was included. I had to do the shuffle...
My memory of chewing Clove gum in the '60s was that it had the Adams brand on it. Am I mistaken?
A three second google search confirms that you are not yet senile. The modern packaging omits the "adams", but it was on the original
I have literally only seen this gum as like a prank shock toy, I didn't even know they were a real brand until I saw this video.
It’s pronounced: chee-klay
Can hardly wait for that Right Stuff video, one of my favorite movies.
