How many times has this happened to you: You're craving a caffeine boost, but you don't want to drink a liquid or swallow any food? You're pretty much screwed, right? Well not in Japan where there are several caffeinated gums to choose from! One such gum is Engine which contains both caffeine and guarana extract. Guarana is a berry grown in the Amazon and contains more caffeine than coffee beans, so it really compliments the caffeine well. The marketing department at Lotte must have realized that not only is the word X-tra quite "hip," but it also saves a ton of time over writing "extra" (three less strokes).
The gum comes in little, unwrapped, yellow pieces, but several sheets of green paper are provided to dispose of the gum. Engine tastes like and energy drink. By that I mean it tastes awful.
