Did you know that Blackjack Chewing Gum is one of the oldest gums in existence?
When it was first introduced in 1871, the gum was chicle-based and flavorless.
It wasn't until 1884 that licorice was added as a flavor (they first tried Sasparilla but it didn't taste as good as expected), thus making it the first flavored gum in the history of candy!
It was also the first chewing gum available in individually wrapped "sticks." Talk about an American classic!
Recently reintroduced in 2019, be amongst the first to get your hands on this elusive classic! Don't miss out!
Contains 20 packs per box
Made with the distinctive licorice flavor you know and love

My Grandpa always had a pack of Blackjack in his suit coat pocket (men wore suits back then). It was always a special treat to have him reach into his pocket and pull a pack of Blackjack out. My first piece of gum was Blackjack, probably about 1961 or so. Just smelling the gum brings back so many good memories of things that are no more. Thanks.

Blackjack gum memories
Chewing Blackjack gum takes me back to the days my 'gang' and I sat in our treehouse telling lies and chewing our favorite gum...
We have long believed that candy connects people to a time when life was easier. It's half the fun of finding old school candies!

Thanks for sharing! While we are thrilled the product is back on the market, we will be sure to pass your information to the manufacturer.
Everything Wonderful...Fresh always, Deliver Quick. The only think was the order was large & in one bag would have liked in two bags. Recommend to everyone...Thank you Always
I hadn't seen these in years so I ordered a box. Now, even though the box had cooling pouches inside and the box plainly said protect from heat, the FedEx delivery placed them on a sidewalk in the 90 degree desert sun. Not the vendors fault.
Perhaps order them in thedead ofWinter only?
Took me back when I was younger.My husband and I used to buy this gum all the time when we were younger.I can tell you this when I got my order in the mail I was not disappointed!π

My dentist advised to have sugarless if one wants something sweet after meals
My dentist advised to have sugarless if one wants something sweet after meals. Since following that advice have never had another cavity, and it's been years. Sugarless hard candy satisfies sweet tooth and keeps mouth from being dry.
