Wrigley just releases two more 5 Gum Flavors- Solstice and Zing.  I personally love Zing, thanks for the samples :P .  The taste started sour which I love already and ends up sweet!  What a great combo!  While the Solstice starts off warm and ends up cool.  I love the packaging, very trendy.  Each gum is individually wrapped in a colorful foil imprinted the 5 logo.  Easy to slip a pack into our purse :)
