gum is made of rubber which is the same kind of rubber that they make tires from but with a softer material and flavor so your basically chewing rubber
"Companies carefully guard their recipes for making Chewing Gum, but all chewing gum has the same basic ingredients. However, specific ingredients, give the gum delicious taste, are kept as secret. The basic ingredients are: gum base, softeners, sweeteners and flavorings. The ingredient that makes your gum 'chewable' is gum base. Gum base is the main ingredient in modern chewing gum

A flavor ingredient in chewing gum has been found to provide long lasting, high intensity and high quality flavor. The flavorings are added last. The most used flavors in chewing gums are: peppermint (called only mint), fruit, spearmint (a variation of mint flavor), menthol (a mint related flavor). Other flavors are synthetically created and perfected in the lab.

What exactly are the ingredients in the chewing gum depend on the type of gum being made."

Does bubble gum dissolve in iSOPROPYL aLCOHOL?

Bubble gum does not dissolve completely in isopropyl alcohol, but it can soften and break down to some extent due to the alcohol's solvent properties. The primary ingredients in bubble gum, such as gum base, sugars, and flavorings, react differently to solvents, with the gum base being more resistant. While isopropyl alcohol may help in loosening and removing some components, it won't fully dissolve the gum as water or certain other solvents might.
