Another chewing gum was in the news lately. Wrigley suspended one of their products that contains caffeine just over a week after it was released. Alert Energy Caffeine Gum contained 40 milligrams of caffeine in each piece, which is equivalent to about half a cup of coffee. Wrigley announced that production, sales, and marketing of the product will be temporarily discontinued. The Food and Drug Administration is investigating the expanding market of products that contain caffeine.
