BBC Sherlock Fan Forum - Serving Sherlockians since February 2012 / Moriarty's Chewing gum

**Posted by Lelli** November 30, 2012 4:12 pm

I do not know why any body should have ever given a thought to it but:

Which flavour are Moriarty’s chewing gums?

I was completely sure it would be mint but then I chewed a different flavoured gum and I started doubting.
After all… Isn’t mint to ordinary for Jim?

P.S.: I didn’t post a survey because I wanted to hear your ideas and whether you have ever thought about it before having red this…
P.P.S.: Thanks to Moriarty I am addicted to chewing gums again... Doom you Moriarty! XD

MInt too ordinary for a BeeGees fan? Good Question

Spearmint, I guess. He is not the melon / strawberry / juicy fruit type.

Cinnamon?
It's sharp and sweet the same time, quite unusual - and causes a fresh breath.

Do they still make these Big Red chewing gums? They were sharp and tasted of cinnamon.

YES. How do I know? Because I bought some 15 minutes ago.
The last time is a while ago... but today I suddenly had to. Strange..................................................

I buy a pack of Big Red everyday at the gift store where I work. While I'm working, I'm a chain chewer

Do they do apple flavour?

What a great question, Lelli!

How about bubblegum flavor, like you get in Bazooka gum? I can see Moriarty liking the idea of chewing something called bazooka, and that particular brand offers large pieces of gum--perfect for blowing bubbles in people's faces.

I just found a brand of gum called Think Gum. I hadn't heard of it before, but they claim to make you smarter....just for the name though, it seems like something a genius would chew.

That's what people chew.

Lol, couldn't resist.

lol XD

Something new came to my mind... what if there was something in the chewing gum like drugs, stimuli, halogenic or stuff... You never know on what kind of trip moriarty is...

Nicotine?

They have changed the order of the emotions icons. How confusing is that!
