 Nasty Taste! October 17, 2008
This product is effective, but the taste is so horrible that I threw it all out. It is worth stating, I can endure nearly any taste if I feel I have a reason to, and with the expense of this product and two full trays... I had a reason to. Unfortunately, I found that I could not bring myself to chew this for the full five minutes recommended, since the taste got more and more bitter with every chew. Considering the many other options I have for caffeine (including Jolt Gum which is entirely palatable), I will not be buying this again.
I found a way to get past the taste. October 17, 2008
I also, found the taste when chewing this stuff enough to make me ill.
It REALLY is awful!!!
And the jolt is a little more than I prefer.
I think I found a solution that will work for me and might for some other people as well.
I got out my rose clipper and carefully cut them into pieces that are smaller and easily swallowed with a beverage.
I still feel like I do get the necessary pick me up, but without the jitters or the awful taste.
So, I ended up pleased with an item that tasted SO awful that I almost threw them away.
Works for me and I think the price for how much caffiene you get on these versus some of the other products out there is pretty good.
I didn't want to go broke staying alert.
 Terrific product, odd pricing August 11, 2008
I love this product and most highly recommend it! The sweet coating and cinnamon flavoring covers the bitter caffeine taste reasonably well, though not nearly as completely as the Arctic Mint version of this product.
The screwy thing is the pricing: The 24-pack costs $2.00 more than buying four 6-packs ($28 vs. $26), so it's clear they've adjusted their pricing to make money on the "shipping costs." I have Amazon Prime, but instead of "free shipping" it's really "$2.00 shipping." (If shipping was really free, the 24-pack product price would be LESS than $26 because the manufacturer's cost for the tray must be less than their cost for four 6-packs.)
Aside from the shipping cost, it's a great product!
Best caffeine product ever! May 21, 2008

I am currently working on my third tray of Stay Alert, I have one a day at about 3pm. It keeps me going and makes it so I don't get crabby from not having enough coffee (I drink eight cups every morning). It only takes five minutes of chewing to feel great again, I have shared this great product with my family members who also are coffee addicts like myself. Sometimes if I have to leave quickly to an emergency and cannot get any coffee in my system I chew one piece of gum in the car. I have Stay Alert stashed all over the place: In the center console of my car, on top of the microwave, at my desk, in my nightstand, in my earthquake kit, and in my tool kit. It's like having extra batteries for your flashlight.
The taste is great and really does not have anything funky going on like all of the other chewable caffeine product on the market (I have tried them all over the last fifteen years). This gum is better than any pill because you get instant results and no jitters or overdose feeling. Just a perfect clean alertness.
If this company ever goes public I want in!!!
Thanks Stay Alert!!!!!!!!!

This gum offers a really quick boost of energy and alertness. Just chew for 5 minutes to get 100 mg of caffeine (about the same as an 8 oz up of coffee). The five pieces per pack make it really easy to carry with you. It is especially convenient in the car, when you need to wake up and don't want to stop for coffee and/or don't want to fill your bladder (thereby necessitating another stop later). The gum has a pleasant cinnamon flavor with just a hint of bitterness -- not an unpleasant bitterness, but it's there. It is made with sugar and I've noticed no aftertaste. This product does exactly what it claims.
