As a lifelong fan of Fruit Stripe Gum (make your 10 second jokes... now), I was a bit confused when it began disappearing from my regular places I would buy it like Walgreens and Walmart. I looked into it and found stating it had been discontinued. There is no date on the article, but I believe it to have been written within the last 6 months from today's date (1/4/2024). I then went to FSG's parent company's, Ferrara Candy, website and received confirmation from a chat agent that FSG has been permanently discontinued. Obviously this company still owns the rights to the brand/product; however, it appears that FSG is gone, possibly forever.

For fans of the product, cases on eBay are available for purchase. That is really the only place that I've found them to be reasonably priced. If you see any at a retail outlet, I'd suggest buying. I bought a few off eBay with the "best by" date of 7/23 and they are fresh as I sit here chewing a piece (and it's gone...).

RIP Fruit Stripe Gum. Despite the truth behind the memes of it lasting a brief time, the flavor for that brief time is unmatched in the chewing gum world. You shall be missed.
