My father used to like something called black jack gum - do you know what it is?
Its an aniseed flavored chewing gum
So like licorice?
The mexican president brought over a lot of chicle over to america to sell it and make money for mexico
What is chicle?
Chicle is a natural type of gum used to make chewing gum
OH, I've never heard of that.  Did it work - was he able to make money for Mexico?
Well it led to the black jack aniseed flavored gum we see today
