Topps Company makes Bazooka Bubble Gum
A standard piece of Bazooka gum typically weighs about 5 grams, while Topps' largest piece of gum, which is often associated with their oversized baseball cards, can weigh around 100 grams. Therefore, it would take approximately 20 pieces of normal-sized Bazooka gum to equal the weight of Topps' largest piece of gum.
Bubble gum first appeared in 1933. But it wasn't until 1947, when the Topps Chewing Gum Co. began to offer the familiar Bazooka penny piece. Later, Topps included baseball cards with slabs of gum, that Bubble Gum became the ubiquitous source of oral gratification it is today.

Gum and candy companies were issuing baseball cards in the early 1900's. I don't know for sure the name of the first company that included cards with sales of gum, but some of the companies include American Caramel, Croft, and John H Dockman & sons who did issue a set of cards with their gum around 1906 -1907. One card from a set of 50 came with a purchase of their "Baseball Gum". Goudey is given credit as the first company in 1933 to include gum with baseball cards.Starting as the Topps gum company in 1938, the Brooklyn, NY based, Topps Gum was eventually replaced by Bazooka Bubble Gum in 1947 and is now one of America's most recognized products.

Topps received numerous complaints from collectors that the gum was either staining the cards, or creating an impression in them, sacrificing their "mint" condition. The gum was eliminated in 1991. The Topps company has recently brought back the gum!
