Yes, you heard right, Camel Balls
are in shops now and they really do look like camel balls. Camel Balls are
extra sour are delicious bubble gum balls, filled with a soft, gooey sour
cherry centre. They look and taste like no other bubble gum you have ever tried
before. These special edition bubble gum balls are only available in selected
independent stores and only for a limited time.
So when this release was sent
to me I literally laughed out loud to the point Hayley came over to the Macbook
to take a look!! Luckily for me she didn’t get it and asked why I was laughing
at lollies for, with a funny look on her face. That is the fun things about
these chewies is the fact the kids think they are just normal chewing gum but
us adults get the humour behind them.
Maybe a little offensive to some,
maybe hilarious to others, but why not be a little bit adventurous and give a
camel ball a try. Camel balls are causing a global Internet sensation with a
viral phenomenon, across social media. And I have already been apart of
that asking my instagram followers if they would like a camel ball. I had
a lot of funny responses and then when I posted a photo of the chewing gum,
there was a lot of laughter.
When I received my care package I
was taken back by the sourness and even now just speaking about it has made my
jaw muscles tense up and also make my mouth water.
I will however note that the
flavour of these chewing gum doesn’t last very long, so when I feel like them I
make sure I have another one on hand to boost the flavour and make it last that
little bit longer.
