FunnyCide answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 11:59 pm: No. If Orbit gum caused cancer there would be a surgeon's general warning that said something like : "Chewing this gum may cause mouth cancer." If Orbit gum does not say that, it probably isn't true. See, if it's possible for something to cause a cancer or disease, the manufacturers are required to put a warning on it. That's why beer, wine, ciggerettes, cigars and smokeless tobacco ("dip") all have a surgeon's general warning on them.

Chicken_flavored_eggs answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 11:57 pm: Yes, yes it does! I command you to stop chewing orbit and take up smoking. Smoking is very well linked to cancer and is less shady about its cancer causingness. As the commercial would say..
Fabulous!
(Orbit does not cause cancer any more than waking up in the morning does. Smoking, however, is proven to, so DO NOT pick up smoking. Unless you already do, then I will see you outside. We can get get cancer together) [ Chicken_flavored_eggs's advice column | Ask Chicken_flavored_eggs A Question ]
xopinkbarbie answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 10:39 pm: No I highly doubt that's true. I've been chewing Orbit gum for like 2 years or more and I obviously don't have cancer :) Nothing to worry about! ♥ [ xopinkbarbie's advice column | Ask xopinkbarbie A Question ]
bubblesamin answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 10:19 pm: No it's not. I don't hew that kind of gum but Orbit gum has been around for a while now and if it caused cancer you'd certainly hear about it on the news.
hco_babe answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 10:11 pm: if it has aspertame in it, then yes it could, (any gum with that) it won't give you it, but if you already have it or don't know about it yet it will trigger it and make it worse. [ hco_babe's advice column | Ask hco_babe A Question ]
Karen answered Wednesday November 16 2005, 10:07 pm: I've been chewing a few pieces of Orbit gum each day for the passed few months and I'm pretty sure it does not cause cancer. What your friend said is not true and I can't find anything to prove that. [ Karen's advice column | Ask Karen A Question ]
