gum wrapper

Chewer's small trash

A gum wrapper is the small piece of paper or foil that individually wraps a stick or piece of chewing gum.

The outer paper often features branding, while an inner foil layer preserves freshness.

Gum wrappers have minor cultural presence as improvised note paper or, folded into chains, a nostalgic childhood craft.
