Eclipse (chewing gum)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Eclipse is a brand of chewing gum, first introduced in the U.S. by the Wrigley Company in 1999 as its first entrant into the pellet gum segment. However, it was modeled after Excel in Canada, which was launched in 1991, eight years before Eclipse was launched.
Eclipse is a Wrigley chewing gum brand that promises to give users "powerful fresh breath." It comes in blister packs of 12 candy-coated pellets.
Mints are also sold by Wrigley's under the Eclipse brand. Eclipse mints are sold in metal containers.
Eclipse gum is available the U.S and Australia.
