Beemans Chewing Gum

Beemans Nostalgic Chewing Gum They're Back for a Limited Time. Stock up Sweeties! Beemans Chewing gum was invented by Dr. Edward Beeman of Ohio in the 1890s when he added pepsin powder to chicle and created the one and only Beemans Pepsin Chewing Gum. It was made famous by Chuck Yeager who chewed it before every flight for good luck. Beemans gum was sold for more than 90 years before being discontinued in 1978, only to be brought back to the market in 1985 and again in 2005 as a limited-edition nostalgia product.
