A blast from the past

More than 15 years ago, 5 Gum’s iconic “Stimulate Your Senses” commercials practically defined a generation. Millennials and some Gen-Z likely recall gathering around the family television to watch classics during a time when shows aired on a schedule and advertisements couldn’t be skipped.

It was also a time in which gum was a kind of currency. All the cool kids were trading sticks of their favourites at recess and in between classes, and 5 Gum was a hot commodity.

That’s because everyone was familiar with the iconic commercials, showing a person experiencing some sort of full-body sensory experience before boldly declaring, “How it feels to chew 5 Gum.”

Over a decade later, the ad campaign remains one of the most memorable platforms from the 2000s. And now, a new generation can create the next wave of future nostalgia.
