Chef’s Review & The Winning Dish: Dentyne’s Designer Bottles & Giveaway
Dentyne is trying some new, exciting things with their gum packaging. Although the flavors inside are not new–peppermint, spearmint, and artic chill¬† (which may be good or bad for you), they have come up with a new bottle design that holds 60 pieces of gum. It measures 3″ high and 2.5″ round. It’s perfect for a cup holder in your car.
I was a little skeptical at first because of the larger size. I like to put gum in my purse for all occasions and I thought this was going to be a problem. It turns out this nifty size fits in right next to my wallet with no extra bulk! I really love it! The cap has a cool design that you can open the tab and pour out a piece or pop the whole top to pick out a piece–this feature is nice because there’s no crackling of paper or candy-sounding crashes during church and events. 
But to add to it, Dentyne has stepped it up a notch with designer labels. This first batch of labels was designed by Anthony Yankovic. While his style is not personally my own, I think it’s great to have a decorative gum holder for my purse, car, or office. There are several colors available depending on the flavor. Anthony‘s style definitely reminds me of something my brother would like and I think will appeal to young adults and skateboarders, for sure!
Dentyne® is a must-have socializing essential that allows socially addicted consumers to practice safe breath for the confidence to make a close connection instantly.  Dentyne® premium badge edition bottles, a first in the U.S. gum category, come in twelve bold, badgy, limited edition designs for three flavors designed by artist Anthony Yankovic, are especially appealing to young adults who love socializing.  Anthony previously produced limited edition designs for trend and badge-driven categories like Apparel, Skateboard and Snowboards.
Win!
One lucky winner will receive a package of the 3 flavors (peppermint, spearmint, and artic chill) in the Anthony Yankovic designs.

DISCLAIMER: I was contacted by Dentyne and received 3 bottles of gum in each of the 3 flavors in Anthony Yankovic’s designs to try out and give an honest review. Dentyne is providing the winner of the giveaway with the same 3 flavors/designs. The opinions expressed in this review are my own and I received no other compensation.
Wow these are amazing. I do some graphic design work myself in my job, but nothing like this. These would be great to have on my desk at work for inspiration and not to mention just to make it look good
I think these are really cool. I love this kind of art. I also like to keep gum in my car, so this works great.
This artwork is not the type I prefer, but it is something colorful & interesting to look at. Maybe while I am waiting in line in my van, I could look it over. I would keep it in my van & purse and share it with my kids. Sounds like the container is convenient. Thanks for trying it out and sharing with us.
Very cool design! I like the idea of being able to store in the cup holder. I would also keep it in the office for any upset stomachs that come my way! I would also share it with my kids.
I would share it with my sister and keep one on my desk!
I like the art, but it’s a little bold for gum packaging. I’d probably leave it on my desk at home and use it while I’m working from my apartment.
