Gum

Chicle

Chewing gum refers to the latex or sap of the Sapota zapotilla tree, which originated in Central and South America, known in Brazil as sapoti, with which chewing gum was originally made. The sapotizeiro also produces an edible fruit the size of a plum with a translucent brown flesh. The chewing gum is extracted from this tree in the same way as the rubber latex, ie they are made with a pocketknife, a series of "V" cuts on its trunk, one above the other but aligned by a plumb cut. The tree exudes by these cuts small drops of sap that descend by the cuts and are deposited in small containers fixed in the trunk, just below. The "chiclero" makes this sangria in a lot of trees in the morning, fixing in them the containers, that in the afternoon collects, gathering the crude sap. The sap already dense by oxidation is then filtered and then boiled to achieve the correct density. There are other ways to artificially produce chewing gum, from the sap of other trees and even from petroleum derivative. To the respective masses, dyes, fragrances and flavor essences are then added. Chicle designa o látex ou seiva da árvore Sapota zapotilla, originária da América Central e América do Sul, conhecida no Brasil como sapoti, com o qual se fazia originariamente a goma de mascar. O sapotizeiro também produz uma fruta comestível do tamanho de uma ameixa, com uma polpa marrom translúcida. O chicle é extraído dessa árvore do mesmo modo que o látex da borracha, ou seja, são feitos com um canivete, uma série de cortes em "V" no seu tronco, um acima do outro mas alinhados por um corte ao prumo. A árvore exuda por estes cortes pequenas gotas de seiva que descem pelos cortes e se depositam em pequenos recipientes fixados no tronco,logo abaixo. O "chiclero" faz esta sangria em uma porção de árvores pela manhã, fixando nelas os recipientes, que à tarde coleta, reunindo a seiva bruta. A seiva já densa pela oxidação é então filtrada e depois fervida para alcançar a densidade correta. Atualmente há outras formas de se produzir artificialmente o chicle, a partir da seiva de outras árvores e até mesmo a partir de derivado de petróleo. Às respectivas massas, então, são adicionados corantes, fragrâncias e essências de sabor.
