IMG_2056.JPG

This is a simple practical joke you can do with any type of red or pink chewing gum.
You will need:
-Red/Pink Chewing gum
-Salt
-Tarragon or curry powder
-Chili powder, Paprika, or Cayenne pepper(works best)
-Water
-Ice
-A pot, plate, a bowl, and a strainer
-*OPTIONAL: Crushed red pepper or jalapeno juice



Preparing the Gum

Unwrap the gum, but don't throw away the wrapper! You will need it later.

Making the Outer Layer

Now, get out your salt, tarragon/curry, and the red spice of your choice(paprika/chili powder/cayenne pepper). Boil about 2 cups of water, and put the spices in the water, like a soup. Add 1/4 of a cup of the spices, and about 1 cup of salt.* While this is boiling, the ice in a bowl.
*NOTE: if you are adding the optional spices, put them in now as well.(1/4 cup of crushed red pepper/juice from 4 jalapenos)

Adding the Gum

When the mixture has boiled, pour some of it into the plate, and drop the gum in. Let it "marinate" for 2-4 minutes. By that time, the gum will be soft, so strain the liquid out and put the gum in the ice to cool for 2-3 minutes.

Wrapping Up

When the gum is solid, dry it off and wrap it in the wrapper again.

Find a Victim

And you're done! Just find a poor sucker to try it on, such as:
-Friends
-Younger people
-People you can't stand
This gum is a great trick for anybody who always wants whatever you have, and for April Fools Day.
