What actually is chicle?​It's a natural tree sap harvested from the sapodilla tree.
​For generations, people in Central America and Mexico have collected, cooked, and chewed this natural latex as gum.​Long before gum became a synthetic blob of plastic and artificial flavoring, there was chicle.
​Real gum.From real trees.​

[Fun fact: The word "chicle" comes from the Nahuatl word "tzictli" (the language spoken by the Aztecs). And yes, Aztecs chewed chicle resin. So every time you chew Underbrush, you're participating in a tradition that's a lot older than the gum aisle at your local convenience store.](https://nathanandsons.com/products/remineralizing-gum?view=sl-FE3D2F1A)

That's one of the reasons we use chicle alongside mastic and spruce resin.​Because if we're going to make gum, we'd rather start with ingredients that actually have a history.
