I've been switching between mint gum and those little breath spray bottles lately, and honestly can't tell which one lasts longer. Gum feels like it fades kinda quick, but sprays seem hit or miss. Curious what you guys prefer?

Gotta agree, gum flavor does fade pretty fast, especially the sugar-free ones. But did you know part of the freshness from gum actually comes from increased saliva production? Saliva helps neutralize odor-causing bacteria, which sprays don't really do. Sprays might hit harder at first, but they're not doing much beyond masking odors temporarily. If you're after longer-lasting freshness, chewing gum probably edges out sprays... though neither beats brushing or mouthwash in my experience.
