 Tastes like crap, but you get used to it October 11, 2008
So after trying Jolt gum, I decided to try Stay Alert, which has double the caffeine per piece. It helps me get through my night shifts as an RN and my day shifts with my active 2 year old. It is an effective product and much cheaper and low-cal than drinking coffee and it won't stain your teeth. What's not to love? Quick answer: the taste. But you get used to it after awhile. I have let friends try it and they all agree: it tastes like crap. But it works.
 Much better October 1, 2008
Still a useful item for me and the flavor is a lot better than the Cinnamon gum.
GOOD BUZZ August 26, 2008

it gives a instant zing, good flavor. The downside is
the buzz wears off quickly. I suggest after chewing the gum drink pepsi one [ no calories, most caffeine of any drink period.] with a lemon twist,and a dash of ground cinnamon or bark. I'm not kidding studies by Harvard and AMA shows "lemon juice and honey breaks up congeston and
stimulates metabolism" [sorry can't spell] "Cinnamon is a drug/calorie free energy boost" "Havard Men's Health Report July 2008"
Super Awesome August 22, 2008

The first time I chewed a whole piece I literally wanted to vomit because of the aftertaste. I looked at the remaining box of 23 packages and thought "Crap, I'm going to have to resell them individually on eBay." But then within a minute, I realized that I was wide awake and super energized, which I've never felt so quickly from any other energy product (liquid, solid, or gel). Over the next few days, I discovered that if I chewed half a piece of the gum at a time, the taste is actually much more tolerable and the effects are just the same. So... thumbs up.
Terrific product, odd pricing August 11, 2008

I love this product and most highly recommend it! Unlike the cinnamon version of this product, I cannot taste any of the bitter caffeine taste. The sweet coating and mint flavor are excellent, and the gum maintains a pleasant mint flavor long after the caffeine is gone. By contrast, the cinnamon version completely loses all taste after 5-10 minutes and I want to spit it out. With the mint version, I actually enjoy continuing to chew the gum.
The screwy thing is the pricing: The 24-pack costs $2.00 more than buying four 6-packs ($28 vs. $26), so it's clear they've adjusted their pricing to make money on the "shipping costs." I have Amazon Prime, but instead of "free shipping" it's really "$2.00 shipping." (If shipping was really free, the 24-pack product price would be LESS than $26 because the manufacturer's cost for the tray must be less than their cost for four 6-packs.)
Aside from the shipping cost, it's a great product!
